Whether you’re a VC focused on securing the best possible deal or a founder with specific requirements and controls, negotiating term sheets can be a tough and even shocking experience. As Sander from Volta Ventures explains, “You’re negotiating the divorce before the marriage even happens.”

Approaching these negotiations with pragmatism and keeping your emotions in check is crucial, especially if your startup is your baby. Don’t be caught off guard if the terms you’re looking for aren’t given outright. Remember, it’s all part of the game.
