InvestmentsFunds, valuations and what the contract says

LEAD INVESTOR

An investor who leads the round: negotiates terms, organizes due diligence, and oversees documentation.

Why it matters

Provides a single point of responsibility for the process — others join on agreed-upon terms.

What's missing without it

Without a lead, the round can fall apart: everyone waits for someone else to set the price.

When it is used

From seed round onward.

How we use it

The lead fund prepares the term sheet and due diligence; others contribute capital.

Fun fact

Finding a lead investor is typically 80% of the work in a round. Once they say 'yes,' the rest closes within weeks.
