If you have been looking for a resource to level the playing field between your management team and the sophisticated venture investors you need to finance your business, then consider this expanded and updated 5th edition of a critically acclaimed resource for people who run and finance growing privately-held businesses. If you are an angel investor who wants to know more about deal structuring, this book is also for you.
Written by a "veteran legal practitioner" who "knows his stuff," the Guide 5.0's practical, no nonsense approach reflects the author's 30+ years of working with growing companies and the investors who fund their growth. Entrepreneurs, venture investors and others have called earlier editions "a masterpiece," "the best corporate finance guide on the market today," and an "incredibly comprehensive resource." Critics add that the Guide "is laced with down-to-earth practical advice" and "no less than indispensable for the entrepreneurial manager."
