Using Venture Debt to Fuel Growth (and Avoid Blowing up Your Company) (Members Only)

Raising equity funds is not the only option available to help startups finance their growth. What are the perks and drawbacks of venture debt? When does it make sense for a startup to take a loan to bridge the gap until its next round — or replace it altogether? And are there any costly mistakes entrepreneurs should watch out for?

On January 12, Todd Schneider from Spinta Capital is coming in to demystify venture debt. He will explain how it all works, when it makes sense for a startup to get a loan versus raise funding, and what to expect.

Here are some of the topics we’ll cover:

• When a startup should or should *not* use venture debt
• Pros + cons of different lender types
• Structures (50 shades of debt)
• Hidden costs of amortization
• Ways to supplement or replace your next round with a loan

And much more!
