Don't believe everything you hear! I don't want to be a cynic, but this rule applies to life too, unfortunately." | | Jenny Lawton "Dive into the network around you and learn from your it. Get connected. Be a mentor and find a good one. Take control of your learning. Everything is a teachable moment if you let it become one." | | Alex Graham Despite the large increase in resources aimed at helping founders navigate the fundraising process, many still struggle when it comes to particular term sheet clauses that can have unintended consequences if misunderstood.
