KS WELI Founder Workshop 1: Financing and Funding 101

Funding can unlock growth, but only if you understand the tradeoffs. This workshop breaks down the startup financing landscape, from venture capital to non-dilutive options, and introduces the building blocks of term sheets, valuation, and deal structure. We’ll also name real barriers founders face in fundraising and contracts, including gender bias, and focus on strategies that help you advocate for your venture with confidence.

Spark Founders will walk away with: a stronger grasp of funding paths, key term sheet language, and next-step tools to pursue the right fit.
