Praise For venture deals
"Every venture capitalist believes they know how to do venture deals. Jason and Brad, however, actually have deep knowledge and insight and are willing to share the details of how to get deals done right. While this book may not actually make you smarter than your lawyer (assuming you have a good one), it is an essential read for entrepreneurs, lawyers, and venture capitalists who want to be successful in a critical part of building a great company: raising money." Eric Jensen, Partner, Cooley LLP
"One of the greatest lessons for entrepreneurs is to learn from others and take advice from trusted partners and experts. In Venture Deals, Jason and Brad offer entrepreneurs the gift of their experience and expertise over many years and hundreds of deals. Take it and run with it. What you will learn in this book will serve you well in every investment, legal, and banking conversation throughout your life as an entrepreneur. Your ideas and your passion will get you far, and having an insider's understanding of how to fund your ambitious goals will get you there that much faster." Greg Becker, CEO, Silicon Valley Bank
"Having worked with Brad and Jason during the Internet bubble, I witnessed first-hand the experience they gained by doing deals that covered the entire range of issues an entrepreneur faces today. This is a must-read for both entrepreneurs and investors as it lets each side understand the terminology, structures, and potential issues inherent in venture deals so they can focus on what really matters, regardless of which side they are on. Every entrepreneur who is raising or considering raising venture capital should read this book!" Heidi Roizen, Partner, DFJ
"Feld and Mendelson pack a graduate-level course into this energetic and accessible book. The authors' frank style and incisive insight make this a required read for high-growth company entrepreneurs, early stage investors, and graduate students. Start here if you want to understand venture capital deal structure and strategies." Brad Bernthal, CU Boulder, Associate Professor of Law, Technology Policy, Entrepreneurial Law
"I've been lucky to have Brad and Jason as mentors on my journey from entrepreneur, to running Techstars Boston, to serving as the first investor to over 100 startups, and now as CEO of The Engine Fund. I give this book to all founders I back. Venture Deals is a fundamental resource for both entrepreneurs and venture capitalists." Katie Rae, CEO and Managing Partner, The Engine
