SAFEs: not as simple as they sound

​If you're a founder raising on SAFEs in 2025, this live session is for you.

​Raising on SAFEs has become A LOT more complicated in the past few years.

​Now in 2025, SAFEs are often accompanied by 8 page side letters that look a lot like a term sheet! This is often a surprise to founders who find themselves confronted with terms they weren't expecting until a priced round.

​This hourlong live session will cover how SAFEs work, the state-of-play for SAFEs in 2025, and how founders can best negotiate SAFEs.

​It will be co-hosted by Jorian Hoover, who is a sparring partner for founders looking to fundraise (helping founders raise $130M+) - and Gary Schall, Partner and Co-Chair of the Startup & VC Practice at WilmerHale.
