If you are an entrepreneur, founder or owner of an early-stage company OR if you are a business angel, venture capitalist or startup investor, this course is for you. Learn from an experienced independent board director what the core elements are to valuing early-stage / startup companies, avoiding underselling the company, not knowing exactly how to establish the value of the equity stake being sold.

I have been mentoring many young & novice entrepreneurs over the last decade. This course not only includes my experience as independent board director where I regularly have to deal with private equity related investment decisions but also consolidates my mentoring observations of early-stage companies since 2010. I was privileged to act since 2010 as a mentor at the Luxembourg Chamber of Commerce Businessmentoring programme imported from Canada/Quebec. In 2018 I was also a founding member of the University of Luxembourg Venture Mentoring Service.

Amongst the core learningswe will explore the following topics :

Company valuation from the founder / owner perspective
Estimate equity valuation specifically for startups & early stage companies
Help entrepreneurs avoid undervaluating / underselling company
Understand various valuation methods for early-stage companies including Market Approach, Income based approach using Discounted Cash Flows and the replacement cost approach
more specifically in the Market Approach methods we will discuss the Berkus Method, Precedent Transaction Method (PTM), Comparable Transaction Method (CTM) & the scorecard valuation method
Understand the role of term sheet & shareholder agreement
Understand and differentiate between 3 types of investments

The course includes as well a downloadable PDF of the course content and also an Excel file to facilitate the valuation based on Income Approach. The Excel file includes as well the Equity Dilution tables used in the training.
