Term sheets - Introduction

No, this isn't a recessionary move to give away unbilled lawyer time nor is it some sort of shift to being a pro-bono only firm. Today, Wilson Sonsini announced the launch of a " term sheet generator ." It's basically a web tool that creates draft preferred financing term sheets for startups. I got a preview of it a couple of weeks ago and my review is that it is really impressive!

Term Sheet « standard » : ce qu’il faut en retenir… | Création d'entreprise ! | Guilhem Bertholet

On se plaint souvent que l’Europe est morcelée, parle plusieurs langues, utilise plusieurs monnaies, n’est pas un continuum logistique, ni technologique d’ailleurs au niveau des infrastructures, et du coup représente un marché beaucoup moins propice au lancement de grosses boîtes dans le web. Un autre aspect de ce découpage en « petits » pays, du point de vue des startups, concerne les phases de financement et de levée de fonds : plus de pays, plus de fonds (numériquement), mais plus petits et moins connectés à l’international… Hé bien les choses bougent (doucement) avec pour la première fois des fonds d’investissement qui se regroupent pour envisager de bonnes pratiques en investissement (notamment transfrontalier)… Cela a pris forme très récemment avec (et on salue le coup de comm’ qu’ils s’offrent au passage) la rédaction d’une TermSheet commune de la part de 21 fonds d’investissements. Pour info, voilà la liste complète : http://www.guilhembertholet.com/blog/2011/07/07/term-sheet-standard-ce-quil-faut-en-retenir/
Raising funds for a new startup can seem like an overwhelming effort for a new entrepreneur largely due to the time, cost, and lack of transparency in the process. The fact that most entrepreneurs only go through this process a few times in their career adds to the challenge: after all, the investor usually knows what to expect. When we first launched Seedsummit , we wanted to have a forum for active seed investors across EMEA to meet and get to know each other better. We were impressed by the 50+ investors who participated and actively debated and discussed issues important to them. A major To Do agreed on was to help investors and entrepreneurs across EMEA by providing guidelines on seed stage investment agreements. Today we are excited to announce that several of the investors across EMEA have agreed on just that. http://seedsummit.org/legal-docs/

Free Startup Tools: How Does Your Term Sheet Compare To The Standards? | TechCrunch

http://techcrunch.com/2011/09/26/free-startup-tools-how-does-your-term-sheet-compare-to-the-standards/ At some point in the game, every entrepreneur and startup founder becomes familiar with the term sheet. But “familiarity” can be a tricky qualifier. Even by one’s third startup, entrepreneurs are not always fully aware of the ins and outs of every term on a term sheet, or how to properly value their company. Just ask GRP Partner Mark Suster . What’s more, there’s the legalese and the anxiety that VCs might sneak in some tricky terms — which all work towards making the process a confusing pain in the ass.
