Workshop | Preparing for an early-stage startup funding round: an Australian legal perspective

This in-person workshop guides early-stage startup founders through the legal requirements and documentation needed for fundraising in Australia, covering key steps in a typical raise, investor expectations, common legal issues, and due diligence preparation. Led by Addisons partner Rebecca Dooley, participants learn what investors focus on, which documents they expect to see, and how to negotiate term sheets effectively. The session includes a presentation, live Q&A, and networking opportunities designed for founders actively preparing to raise capital or currently speaking with investors.
