We had an engaging and interactive discussion at the newly launched SingHealth Technology Incubator on founders’ agreements and how they differ from shareholders’ agreements. This presentation is part of our series of presentations on VIMA’s Pre-Series A Pack. 

We were looking forward to delve deeper into topics such as Convertible Agreement Regarding Equity (CAREs), Simple Agreements for Future Equity (SAFEs), convertible notes, and Employee Share Option Plan (ESOPs). However, as often happens when engaged in such engaging discussions, time seemed to slip away faster than anticipated. 

Stay tuned for future events where we hope to explore these topics further and continue fostering knowledge exchange and collaboration within the startup community. 

Thank you to all who participated in making this discussion!
