Collecting Data: How Investors and Lawyers Consider Your Moat
What to expect:
In this workshop, participants will explore how lawyers and investors evaluate data in practice, with a focus on real-world fundraising and diligence considerations.
The session will begin with an overview of how data typically arises in fundraising conversations. Peter will then share insights drawn from his work with startups, regulators, and investors. He will discuss common patterns he sees across transactions, including what creates risk, what can quietly increase enterprise value, and where founders often misjudge data-related issues. The workshop will end with a live Q&A.
Topics covered will include:
• How data contributes to defensibility and enterprise value
• Where data collection and structure can create hidden risk
• What investors notice early versus what emerges during diligence
• What practical, stage-appropriate data hygiene looks like
