ABOUT

Finance4Founders is a group of Silicon Valley geeks, entrepreneurs, & investors dedicated to educating and helping the next generation of internet startups around issues of fund raising, option pools, and term sheets. We meet monthly over dinner to discuss relevant topics in raising capital, working with investors, and compensating great teams.

The co-founders of Finance4Founders are Dave McClure & Dan Martell; organizers also include Cassie Philips & countless others. Finance4Founders draws inspiration from (and plagiarizes liberally) Startup2Startup, Round Zero, Silicon Forum, and numerous other previous & future Silicon Valley geek and entrepreneurial events.

The primary goals of Finance4Founders are:

  • Learn about financing & startups
  • Celebrating success stories
  • Meet promising new geeks & entrepreneurs
  • Eat, drink, & have fun :)

At the very least, we plan to get the last one right.
