To get to Unicorn status, companies often raise multiple funding rounds: it's impossible to grow that fast without external capital. Those rounds are often called Seed, Series A, Series B, Series C, etc.

Now, the first round startups raise, is often structured as a convertible note. The problem is convertible notes (or bridge rounds as they are often called) are designed for these startup stories, and there are many stories in the middle where convertible notes can become a hassle.

We are one of them, and in this video, we'll tell you all about it.
Here's the danger with convertible notes.

Can you please make a video about legal side of a startup, things to take care of while raising funds and how to make your own legal team, and if a startup needs a legal team

Your story seems statistically more relevant for most startups rather than the unicorns since most startups will either fail or become profitable but wont become unicorns. Thanks for the video! Muchas gracias!

This is awesome. Thank you for sharing your story. We tend to lose sight of the fact that to be profitable is an option. Venture funding is seen as a silver bullet by many but while it is silver it is also a bullet and can kill the business.
