Business Strategy & Getting To An Exit Topics
Since the goal of every founder and investor is to get to an exit and reap the financial rewards of the risk taken with time and money to launch and build the company. Wealth is created when there is a successful exit - not when the company is started or through all the rounds of capital. Creating a successful exit is not always as easy as it may sound. Guests share their best practices and proven strategies to prepare and architect the sell of the company to a strategic acquirer or to the public in an IPO - Initial Public Offering.
Episodes also cover key strategies for protecting intellectual property, protecting and growing revenue, and even some tax tips.
