What Investors See in Your Cap Table (and Other Lessons)

A discerning, savvy investor can tell a lot about your business by looking at your cap table (capitalization table). Even without reviewing other details or meeting with your team, the cap table reveals many details that can give an investor an easy reason to say yes or no to further due diligence. Cleantech venture leadership teams are invited to join seasoned investor and Foresight EIR Henry Kutarna for a deep dive into the lessons he has learned from startup cap tables about timing, traction, valuation, types of shares, and other insights for cleantech founders.
