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.

Lunch & Learns are open to everyone. However, only COAST members enjoy the following benefits:

  • Access to the event recording
  • The ability to submit questions in advance
  • Any discount codes provided by the presenter
  • Access to the presenter’s contact information and slide deck
