BLCK VC ATL Cap Table Workshop

Understanding how early-stage investments translate into ownership is critical for any VC or angel investor navigating the startup ecosystem. In this interactive cap table workshop, you’ll gain practical tools and insight into how your early investments—whether through SAFEs or convertible notes—appear on a startup’s cap table and how they convert in a priced equity round. We’ll break down key concepts like pre-money vs. post-money valuation caps, conversion mechanics, and the impact of discounts, option pools, and valuation caps on your ownership. You’ll also learn how anti-dilution protections work once your investment converts to equity, and how to advocate for your interests during follow-on rounds.

​Led by a venture capital attorney with deep experience supporting founders, investors, and funds across the Southeast, this session is designed specifically for VC and angel investors looking to strengthen their deal analysis, protect their positions, and grow generational wealth through early-stage investing. Whether you’re investing in your first SAFE or reviewing a Series A term sheet, you’ll leave this session with a sharper understanding of how to evaluate your equity stake and the long-term implications on your returns.
