Description
Julia has seen a post circulating on Linkedin of examples of “uninvestable captables”. Andreas is curious if these cap tables really are as broken as they appear. They end up speaking about what to do if you end up with a broken cap table, what to do to mitigate it happening from the start — and if these examples of “broken cap table” really are that bad. The discussion includes what dead equity is, when option plans make sense, and benchmarks for vesting and cliffs. Company of the week: Tankeapoteket Other resources mentioned: Almi and Scribe as a tool for automating the creation of SOPs (standard operating processes).  Hosted by Julia Delin & Andreas Johansson Edited by Victor Ganguly Responsible publisher: Lars Strannegård
