Sweat equity is an approach being increasingly used by startups looking for critical resources and skills in early stages - as an alternative or complement to traditional venture capital. It is also being increasingly used by non-traditional investors, often consisting of individuals & companies with unique skillsets, that leverage these skills and their time as investments in promising startups. David Göthensten from HatchBay held a very appreciated seminar at GBG Tech Week with an introduction to what Sweat equity is and how it works, as well as why it’s growing in prevalence. David shared potential pitfalls, as well as the strategies for success in Sweat equity investments. Some of the questions that were discussed were: - What is Sweat equity? - When should I raise Sweat equity? - How can you ensure a good partnership/collaboration between startup & investor? - What kind of legal frameworks are needed? - How can I assure that concrete value is created and how to reach milestones?
