Founder Legal Boot Camp #4

This is the fourth edition of Orrick’s Founder Legal Boot Camp – again together with RWTH Innovation, WHU Entrepreneurship Center and TUM Venture Labs.

We share lessons learned from working with countless start-ups and make aware of some of the most relevant legal pitfalls that can trip over founders in the first years. Legal topics include:

• Setting-up the Company – early pitfalls and preparing the company for scaling
• Start-up Financing and Term Sheet Deep Dive – convertible loans, equity financing and latest deal trends based on our European 2022 and YTD 2023 data samples
• Employee Participation Programs – VSOP, ESOP and growth shares
• Data Privacy Must Haves
• IP Must Haves – protecting your IP and IP transfers from the university
• Employment Law Must Haves
• Tax Pitfalls in the Early Stages
• U.S./German Holding Structures – setting it up from scratch and the famous "flips"

The program of the FLBC#4 will be augmented by a Fireside Chat – more soon.

Orrick speakers include Benedikt Migdal, Carsten Bernauer, Carsten Engelings, Christian Schröder, Johannes Rüberg, Marianna Karapetyan, Onur Öztürk, Stefan Schultes-Schnitzlein and Sven Greulich.
