We are excited to launch our Advance Subscription Agreements 'Need to Know' series - the questions we get asked the most, by founders. To kick-start the series, it makes sense to explain what an Advance Subscription Agreement (ASA) actually is, check out the video below, and if you've got a question, feel free to reach out to our Seven Legal founder, Bill Cogan. We will be sharing more of these questions and answers, over weeks to come, so stay tuned for more intel coming your way soon... #founders #scaleups #startups #legalsupport

At this time of year the question of "How do I get cash 💸 from investors in the door before Christmas?" arises almost as often as enquiries about a Founder's plans for the holidays 🎅 Here is a quick recap of FAQ's for Advance Subscription Agreements, the go to document in the UK for those seeking investment ASAP and conversion to equity at a later date 📆 Reach out with any questions, you are definitely not alone this week!

What a way to kick-start the festivities! 🎄 A massive thank you to Kellie Simpson 👩🏼💻 who organised the Seven Legal Christmas Social last week. Running a remote first company and using a fractional model means we don't get to catch up face to face as often as we'd like. So days like this, spending non-work time with our Seven Legal team and celebrating each other, is everything! Thank you to everyone who came! 🎅

One of our key purposes is to do good work with and for good people - this room was a real demonstration of that ethos. It was wonderful to host a dinner for some of our amazing clients and partners last week. We are delighted that everyone seemed to have a great time. Thanks all for coming and we are looking forward to hosting more curated dinners in 2025. If you're a partner who'd like to host one with us or a client who'd love to attend, just let Bill Cogan or Saman Harris know! #community #network #founders #entrepreneurs #tech

Fractal is going to be one of the most exciting disruptors in the tech space in the coming decade. They are looking to tackle a critical challenge by integrating human and machine workflows to drive exponential productivity. We worked at the cutting edge of this innovation with their CEO Jonathan Gilmore and the team to start to help them build out their key contract documents fit for the intelligence age. #AI #tech #contracts #founders #legal #highgrowth #vc #startups #scaleups

AI is currently at the centre of so many conversations among businesses, founders and executives. With all the rapid development, governments and regulators are scrambling to keep up and it's important that businesses follow these developments One of the earliest movers in the space is the EU. The Head of our Commercial department Saman Harris has written a blog to try and help understand the EU AI Act. #AI #regulation #EUAIAct #EU #founders #law
Nothing is creating more noise than AI in the tech (or possibly any) industry in the last 12 months or so. As the industry evolves and grows, regulators are scrambling to keep up. For founders working in the tech industry it's important (but not easy) to try and keep up with changing regulation. I've written a blog about the key takeouts from EU AI Act to try and help founders keep pace. https://lnkd.in/edKFF3ph #AI #EUAIAct #regulation #law #tech #founders #compliance

Yesterday our Head of Commercial and Fractional GC Saman Harris went to a brilliant event hosted by Founders Capital for Angel investors looking to build the perfect investment portfolio. At Seven Legal we specialise in advising start up founders on getting investment from pre-seed stage onwards. It's always fascinating to see things from the investor side and better understand how Angel investors and VC's such as Kirsten Connell from Octopus Ventures are looking at early stage companies. 🚀 If you're looking to raise, get in touch with our Seven Legal Founder and Head of Corporate, Bill Cogan. #Angel #investor #vc #fundinground #startups #scaleups #investment
It often seems like everyone on LinkedIn is claiming to be an Angel investor. 👼 Today, Founders Capital held a great event aimed at demystifying how best to invest in what remains a poorly understood asset class for most of us. What's the point though? In a world where founders and even farmers 👨🌾 🐄 are losing their tax incentives, Angel investing remains a super tax efficient way (in the UK) to invest in companies that could have a hugely positive future impact on the wider economy (and world 🌎). However, big potential upsides come with the reality that the vast majority of startups don't make it. So beyond the hype and the bravado, here are some useful takeaways I got out of today's session: 💸 Only invest what you are willing (and can afford) to lose 📈 Have a strategy and stick to it 🦣 Spread risk by having a larger portfolio (at least 10-20 companies) 🍔 Meet with founders and trust your gut 🧐 Be cautious about follow on investment (re-investing in the same company) 🚰 Be prepared to be diluted 60-80% if you're an early stage investor in a unicorn 🍽️ De-risk by taking money off the table in future rounds, you don't always have to wait for the moon shot. Thanks to the amazing panel of Kirsten Connell, Richard Hadler, Ayesha Ofori and Alex Packham for their genuinely inspiring insights. #angel #investors #vc #fundraising #founders #community
