Raising money is hard. Entrepreneurs need to understand what’s involved – from what to consider when picking the right venture partner and how to think about the economic and control rights at stake, to what life will be like after the deal closes.

I’ve been talking for some time about how driverless cars are going to change EVERYTHING. It’s a funny concept when you first hear it. The typical reaction is, “Yeah, so I get that we won’t have to drive ourselves around anymore…it’ll be like taking the bus.
