Are your contracts putting your startup at risk?

As a startup founder, your innovation and vision are key, but the foundation of your company’s success rests on strong legal agreements. Access Silicon Valley invites you to "Top 10 Key Contract Mistakes That Can Sink Your Startup," a critical session for founders and leaders of early-stage companies. Eli Mansour, a partner at Snell & Wilmer and advisor in technology transactions and contracts, will guide you through the most common (but often costly!) contract missteps that can jeopardize your business and technology—or worse, make your company unfundable!

Why This Workshop Matters
As your startup grows, you'll be entering into contracts with employees, contractors, vendors, customers, and investors all of which can impact, restrict or harm your technology and intellectual property rights. Serious mistakes in these agreements can lead to intellectual property and legal disputes which not only threaten your operations but can also send red flags to potential investors and acquirers, making it harder to raise capital or close deals.

Whether it's a poorly structured NDA, vague payment terms, or failing to properly draft your privacy policy, these mistakes can delay your growth or even derail your entire business. Eli Mansour has seen firsthand how these errors can cripple startups. Investors don’t just invest in an idea—they invest in companies with sound legal and operational foundations. Contract mistakes, particularly those involving intellectual property or privacy, can be major deal-breakers. Investors are quick to spot these red flags, and such errors can lead to delays or even the complete collapse of funding opportunities. In this workshop, Eli Mansour will show you how to create well-structured, investor-friendly contracts that protect your startup and make it more attractive to investors, partners, and acquirers.

Don’t miss this opportunity to safeguard your startup’s future and position your company for long-term success.
