Legal Essentials Masterclass by Renascence & Partners

Legal stuff is often times overlooked by entrepreneurs and considered “not really necessary”. Unfortunately, they only realize the importance of legal documentation and advice after suffering huge losses or missed opportunities. In several circumstances, many start-ups with amazing ideas fail to attract required funding because they lack the right business structure investors love to see or perhaps they are unable to inspire investors’ confidence on business sustainability.

The Legal masterclass will provide learning opportunity for entrepreneurs as it brings to bear focal areas throughout the entrepreneurial journey (from IDEATE to FUND stage), as well as highlight required legal support to stimulate growth in Nigeria startup ecosystem.
The session is divided into two (2) parts of 30 minutes each. The first part aims to teach participants on how to protect their businesses and position it for growth – from company formation, patents & trademarks, privacy policy, non-compete agreement, venture capital / financing round documentation, employee contracts to international law on foreign investments. The second half is a question and answer (Q & A) session, providing participants the opportunity to procure free legal advice or answers to their questions / areas of interest.
