COAST's Lunch & Learn Volume 6: Frictionless Data Rooms

Are you ready for your most challenging conversations with investors?

Many founders think fundraising is about perfecting their pitch deck. But here's what seasoned founders know: your pitch might get you in the room, but it's your data room that gets you the cheque.

Join David Steinley of Future Standards for a focused training session on preparing a data room that helps you build trust with your investors, confidence in yourself, and close your next round sooner.

You'll learn:

• David's process for building a data room and prioritizing information to share.
• What signals investors are looking for when they're reviewing your data room.
• How a data room helps you move quickly through due diligence.
• Which due diligence principles to follow and red flags to avoid.  
• Best practices for software and security when sharing sensitive information.

This session is perfect for founders who are planning to raise pre-seed, seed, or series A capital sometime in the next year. 

For those who attend in person, we're hosting a COAST Social Hour immediately after the session, including food and refreshments.
