Cap tables rarely start out broken, but they often end up that way.

​From messy SAFEs and mispriced rounds to forgotten advisors, unclear option grants, and poorly documented secondary transactions, small early decisions can compound into major problems that block financings, slow acquisitions, or scare off investors entirely. In this practical webinar, we’ll break down:

• ​The most common ways cap tables become broken

• ​Which problems are fixable, which are expensive, and which are effectively unfixable

• ​How lawyers and investors evaluate risk when looking at a messy cap table

• ​Concrete steps founders can take to clean things up—and prevent future issues

​Joining us is Colin Kirby, Partner and Co-Chair of Foley Hoag’s Emerging Companies & Venture Capital practice, who will share real-world examples from the legal trenches and explain how these issues actually get resolved (or not).

​If you’re a founder, operator, or finance leader who wants to avoid painful surprises later, this session will give you a clear, realistic playbook.
