Join us for a full day of talks, panels, and networking at General Assembly, bringing together founders and investors for an intelligent dialogue about fundraising strategies for early-stage startups, common misconceptions and best practices in fundraising, the future of crowdfunding, honest stories from entrepreneurs on successful (and less than successful) capital raises, negotiating a term sheet, and more. Breakfast, lunch & drinks will be served.
