Podcasts about Term sheet

Provaris Energy Ltd managing director and CEO Martin Carolan joins Jonathan Jackson in the Proactive studio to discuss the confirmation of a Term Sheet with Uniper, as well as its capital-light revenue model to generate early cash flow while limiting large-scale capital expenditure. This approach is a key part of the company's commercialisation strategy. Revenue will be generated through Technology Licence Fees and Origination Fees, ensuring upfront and recurring income streams. The company's hydrogen shipping fleet will be funded by third parties, such as shipowners or Special Purpose Vehicles (SPVs). These entities will finance and operate hydrogen carriers under long-term charter agreements. Provaris retains the flexibility to invest selectively in fleet assets or projects that enhance long-term shareholder value. Projected financial returns could reach up to US$34 million (approximately A$54 million) per project, based on deployments involving two H2Neo carriers and one H2Leo barge. Carolan stated, “With multiple supply chain projects advancing in parallel, this approach allows Provaris to focus on executing agreements without overextending its balance sheet and significant shareholder dilution. “Additionally, the board retains the flexibility to invest selectively in fleet assets or projects to enhance long-term value for shareholders.” #ProactiveInvestors #ProvarisEnergy #ASX #Hydrogen #EnergyTransition #RenewableEnergy #GreenHydrogen #HydrogenEconomy #SustainableEnergy #HydrogenCarriers #EnergyInnovation #HydrogenBarge #Decarbonisation #CleanEnergy #FleetFinancing #EnergyInfrastructure

Provaris Energy Ltd (ASX:PV1, OTC:GBBLF) managing director and CEO Martin Carolan talked with Proactive about the company's latest milestone: the culmination of a term sheet agreement. This achievement marks Provaris' progress in compressed hydrogen shipping solutions, specifically within the European market. Carolan explained the collaboration with Uniper and Norwegian Hydrogen, emphasising the tripartite agreement for hydrogen exports. The proposed project involves 42,500 tonnes of hydrogen annually over a minimum of ten years, a step that validates Provaris' commercial model. He noted, "It's the first true, visible, validation and accreditation of what we're doing because it's moved to public endorsement." Provaris is advancing developments with compressed hydrogen carriers and looks to move from non-binding term sheets to binding agreements in the next six months. The company aims to play a significant role in the rapidly evolving European hydrogen market while continuing to develop export sites in Norway and explore opportunities in Finland.

I met Fortune Senior Finance Reporter Allie Garfinkle in February 2024 at an event for comms professionals.  She had just taken over the Term Sheet daily deals newsletter covering startups, venture capital, M&A, trends and pretty much anything tech-related. When news broke right after our panel that Reddit was filing to go public, she didn't have a desk or a chair, so she grabbed her laptop, sat on the floor with her back to the wall and began drafting her next column. She wasn't stressed out — she seemed excited and laser-focused. Term Sheet comes out five times each week which means she's up and reviewing reader tips between 4am and 6am. “I actually write every day because I want it to feel urgent. It's sort of this odd equivalent of being journalistically naked,” she said. A lot of tech reporters use their platforms to make predictions, pick winners and embroider their opinions, but Allie tends to play it right down the middle.  “The thing that I probably excel at is sort of being somewhere between neither being a cheerleader nor being an incredibly harsh critic,” she said. “I actually try to approach every person in front of me on their terms, like, “okay, who are you?” Episode breakdown (3:49) “I started at Fortune in January. New year, new job. I'd actually never written a daily newsletter before, ever.” (7:00) “I think there are great hot takers in this business. But I don't think I will ever be one of them.” (9:27) “What's the bar for including things? I try to put myself in the position of the readers.” (11:57) “The Reddit IPO — actually the day we met — I had another story in the can. I recall this.” (14:40) “There's a certain kind of conventional story of success I find incredibly boring.” (16:53) “There's sometimes stories where I don't know if I'm the right person.” (17:13) Why Elon Musk just isn't that interesting to write about. (19:07) How Allie really feels about writing tech trend pieces. (21:44) She explains how Stephen Sondheim's rules for songwriting also apply to tech reporting. (25:04) Allie's advice for early-stage founders who are fundraising in 2024. (29:04) “I don't want to work with jerks. This is something that I've had to learn the hard way over time.” Links Allie Garfinkle, Senior Finance Reporter, Fortunealexandra.garfinkle@fortune.com Fortune articles by Allie GarfinkleReddit's S-1 paints the picture of a company with a complicated past, present, and future Poor Charlie's Almanack: The Essential Wit and Wisdom of Charles T.

In Today's Episode with Kevin Hartz We Discuss: 1. What Makes the Best Founders: What questions does Kevin always ask founders in the investment process? Does Kevin prefer serial or first time founders? Why? Does Kevin prefer founders who are new to a problem or who are insiders and experts?

What did Kevin see in the seed round of Airbnb that so few other investors saw? Does Kevin agree that the best businesses often start off as ridiculous or toys? 3.

Rudy, a founder in fund-raising mode, received a verbal term sheet. A what? Heidi informs Rudy that there is no such thing as a verbal term sheet and flags all the other issues with the investor's offer. In this episode, Heidi resets Rudy's expectations of what is involved in the fund-raising process, including the time it will take to properly diligence investors.  More information: https://www.threshold.vc/podcast/the-case-of-the-verbal-term-sheet Further Reading: Here's a great piece about whether Term Sheets are legally binding, and what happens to your reputation if you renege on one. Term sheets are typically non-binding in that neither side is obligated to close the deal. But what is usually binding is confidentiality and exclusivity: https://www.jdsupra.com/legalnews/are-term-sheets-really-nonbinding-1765649/ Y Combinator has a great piece on seed fundraising, which goes into detail about debt versus equity here: https://www.ycombinator.com/library/4A-a-guide-to-seed-fundraising Here's a good post on SAFEs versus convertible notes: https://blog.hubspot.com/sales/safe-vs-convertible-note And, finally, seed-stage investor Chris Neumann on how to diligence a VC: https://chrisneumann.com/archives/how-to-diligence-a-vc   

Blue Sky Uranium CEO Niko Cacos joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share news the company has entered into a binding term sheet with Corredor Americano, an Argentine company, to complete an option agreement regarding the Company's Ivana Uranium-Vanadium Deposit. Cacos told Proactive that Corredor Americano can earn up to a 50% indirect interest in the Property by spending up to 35 million dollars advancing Ivana through to the completion of a feasibility study and drilling key exploration targets located in adjacent areas of the Property. Following a positive feasibility study, Corredor can earn an additional 1% upon its decision to fund the capital cost of the Project and further 29% interest by funding 100% of the estimated capital costs to achieve commercial production. Cacos emphasized the strategic importance of this agreement with its recent PEA for the Amarillo Grande Project confirming the Ivana deposit as a potential candidate for low-cost uranium production. The proposed transaction provides compelling benefits for Blue Sky and its shareholders by setting a clear path to bring Ivana to production in partnership with one of the most capable groups in Argentina. The collaboration with Corredor Americano is expected to accelerate the development of the Ivana deposit, leveraging Corredor's expertise and financial strength. This partnership aims to unlock the full potential of the deposit, ensuring a streamlined path towards commercial production. The terms of the agreement reflect a structured approach to project development, with Corredor Americano taking on significant financial commitments to advance the Ivana project. This includes funding for extensive drilling programs and feasibility studies, aimed at confirming the project's viability and outlining a clear route to production. As the project progresses, Blue Sky Uranium will provide regular updates on key milestones and developments, ensuring transparency and keeping stakeholders informed. The company remains committed to advancing its portfolio of uranium and vanadium assets, capitalizing on favorable market conditions and the growing demand for these critical minerals. #proactiveinvestors #blueskyuraniumcorp #tsxv #otc #bsk #bkucf #invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews

My guest today is the author of “Hidden Genius,” The Secret Ways of Thinking that Power the World's Most Successful People, Polina Marinova Pompliano. She is the founder of The Profile, a media organization that studies successful people and companies. Previously, she spent five years at FORTUNE where she covered technology and venture capital. As the author and editor of Term Sheet, FORTUNE's industry-leading dealmaking newsletter, Polina interviewed the industry's most influential dealmakers, including Melinda Gates, Steve Schwarzman, Richard Branson, and more. hiddengeniusbook.com readtheprofile.com In today's episode, we embark on a captivating journey through the bustling corridors of New York City's subway, where inspiration often strikes unexpectedly. From these underground musings, we delve into the transformative power of personal narratives, discovering profound insights and relatable wisdom from the experiences of others. My guest, Polina, shares invaluable lessons gleaned from the paths of the most successful individuals. Amidst tales of triumph, we explore the notion that success is not always a linear journey; rather, it often manifests in the midst of messiness and imperfection. Embracing the inevitability of hardship, we learn to navigate the twists and turns of our own narratives with resilience and grace. Polina offers sage advice, drawing from the wisdom of those who have navigated similar challenges. Among the gems she shares is the concept of cultivating an aspirational alter ego—an empowering tool for personal growth and achievement. As our conversation unfolds, we delve deeper into the mechanics of success, exploring the role of systems and the indispensable nature of trust in our pursuits. And as we reach the culmination of our discussion, we leave you with a stirring reflection on the essence of success—a reminder that its true measure lies not solely in achievement but in the journey itself. Join us as we uncover the transformative power of storytelling, resilience, and trust, and embark on a journey toward realizing our fullest potential. Before we dive into the conversation, I'd like to extend my gratitude to my dear friend Jordan Olmscheid for introducing me to Polina. Jordan is the brilliant mind behind "The Wealth Letters," a compilation of letters from accomplished individuals imparting their most profound life and business insights. If you haven't already, I highly encourage you to check out his previous episode on the show—it's a treasure trove of wisdom. Additionally, Jordan is currently immersed in an exciting new book project; be sure to follow him on Substack for updates and exclusive content. Alright, let's get started, please help me welcome, Polina Pompliano. The New York subway can be a source of inspiration for many people. Feeling like an outsider can provide a different perspective and advantage. Learning history through personal stories and experiences can make it more relatable and engaging. Learning from others' experiences and stories can help in making better decisions and understanding different perspectives. Success is often messy and non-linear, requiring a willingness to fail and learn from mistakes. Embracing imperfection can lead to innovative and successful outcomes. Hardship and suffering can be catalysts for personal growth and progress. Developing an alter ego can help individuals overcome self-limiting beliefs and tap into their full potential. Understanding different perspectives is crucial for empathy and avoiding judgment. Translating a book can have a profound impact, allowing people who don't speak the original language to access and understand the author's work. Trust is the foundation of personal and professional relationships, and it is earned through consistency and reliability. Focusing on systems rather than outcomes can lead to more sustainable and fulfilling success. Defining success.

Nic McGrue is an experienced attorney who advises clients on negotiating deals. He has seen many people make the mistake of using online templates to create a letter of intent, which may not suit their unique deal or leave out important terms. Nic advises clients to use the Letter of Intent (LOI) to set the big picture terms and then let the lawyers handle the details.

Siamo qui per fare una crash-course sulle term sheets ! Un documento molto importante nel mondo startup… Cos'è una term sheet? Di base è il documento che un investitore manda a una startup per esprimere il suo interesse ad investire nell'azienda. In altre parole, durante la fase di fundraising un founder deve andare a caccia di term sheets.  Ma una term sheet non vale l'altra. Un potenziale investitore usa questo documento per delineare i principali termini economici e contrattuali che saranno la base della negoziazione per poi arrivare a un possibile investimento. Quindi è cruciale che un founder capisca le principali clausole da negoziare prima di entrare in un eventuale contratto.  Per affrontare questo tema molto importante abbiamo deciso di invitare Giovanni Calabrese, investitore e VC Associate in gruppo Sella, e Gianluca Cocco, imprenditore tech con una exit alle spalle e che adesso sta lavorando ad una nuova startup in stealth mode. L'obiettivo di questa intervista è capire bene i termini del term sheet perché spesso quando una startup ha bisogno di denaro può essere tentata da accettare la prima term sheet che riceve … ma non facendo attenzione si corrono grandi rischi: banalmente diluirsi troppo o per esempio accettare clausole che possono permettere ad un investitore di vendere l'azienda senza l'accordo del founder. Allo stesso tempo un investitore che rischia capitale ha bisogno delle sue protezioni. Infatti sentire i due punti di vista sarà molto importante.  RISORSE: - Venture Deals Be Smarter Than Your Lawyer And Venture Capitalist - Articolo: https://www.indexventures.com/rewardingtalent/startup-ownership SPONSOR Turnover è l'agenzia nata all'inizio del 2021 che aiuta le aziende a muoversi nel complesso mondo delle vendite online, in particolare su Amazon. Turnover gestisce gli account Amazon dei propri clienti per aiutarli a vendere di più e meglio. Per farlo, lavora su diversi ambiti, come l'ottimizzazione e gestione dei prodotti; lo sviluppo di asset come foto e Video ad hoc per questo canale; la creazione e coordinazione di campagne ADV; l'analisi e lo studio dei dati per implementare le strategie di crescita. Turnover è parte del Service Provider Network di Amazon e Verified Partner di Amazon Advertising, il programma di intermediari certificati Amazon.

Paramount Global has filed a $50 million-plus countersuit against Warner Bros Discovery over streaming rights to the long-running cartoon satire, South Park. This is in response to Warner Bros Discovery's $200 million lawsuit against Paramount Global over the same issue. The countersuit seeks to recover unpaid license fees and a declaratory judgment confirming the parties' rights and obligations under the Term Sheet. The legal battle has become increasingly heated, with both sides making strong accusations against each other. This legal dispute is significant as it could impact the launch of Warner Bros Discovery's revamped Max streaming service next month. Expect to see lawyers making a lot of money as this legal battle continues. Demetrious Polychron, a Lord of the Rings fan fiction writer, is suing the Tolkien Estate and Amazon for $250 million in copyright infringement, claiming that The Rings of Power show infringes on his work, The Fellowship of the King. Polychron claims his work is "inspired by Lord of the Rings and J.R.R. Tolkien" but is a "wholly original book and concept." He has attempted to work with the Tolkien Estate professionally but was rebuffed, so he delivered a copyrighted copy to Simon Tolkien's home. The lawsuit points out similarities between the two works, but some of Polychron's claims, such as one of his characters having the same name as a character in Rings of Power, are contested.

Darker times in venture have seen the return of some old investment terms that haven't had much of an airing lately: warrants, participating liquidation preferences, tranches, and more. These aren't always bad, but if you're not careful you can end up with a cap table that makes you uninvestable in future rounds.

This is our Wednesday show, where we niche down to a single topic, think about a question and unpack the rest. This week, Natasha asked: What's in the fine print for term sheets these days, and what does that tell us about who is going to be in control during the downturn? The question was inspired by a recent story by Becca Szkutak - one of TC's newest venture reporters - about how deal terms look different in a downturn. Of course that means we had to bring on Szkutak to talk about her story and dig into a further analysis of how founder friendliness is being challenged right now. Expect a tactical episode all about different terms that may start sneaking into term sheets, the cost benefit analysis of each, and why down rounds aren't the end of the world.https://techcrunch.com/2022/06/21/deal-terms-look-different-in-a-downturn-heres-what-to-watch-out-for/Equity drops every Monday at 7 a.m. PDT and Wednesday and Friday at 6 a.m. PDT, so subscribe to us on Apple Podcasts, Overcast, Spotify and all the casts.
