Securing equity investment is often a key milestone for a new business. As well as the obvious financial benefits, taking an investor on board represents an endorsement of you, your team and your vision for the business. An experienced investor may even bring a range of skills and contacts to help accelerate the business’s growth. Obviously, the commercial terms (investment amount, valuation, percentage shareholding) attaching to the investment need to be right, but you should also think about what your relationship with the investor will look like going forward.
