Collecting Data: How Investors and Lawyers Consider Your Moat

In this workshop, we’ll look at how lawyers and investors actually consider your data. Not in theory, but in practice.
About this Event
A lot of founders talk about data as a moat… especially in AI.
Far fewer understand how that data is evaluated once investors and lawyers start asking real questions.

In fundraising, data shows up in places founders don’t always expect. It affects how your story lands, how smooth diligence feels, and how much risk gets quietly priced into a deal. Decisions that feel small early can create real friction later… or strengthen your position if handled well.

In this workshop, we’ll look at how lawyers and investors actually consider your data. Not in theory, but in practice.

I’ll start by framing how data tends to show up in real fundraising conversations. Then we’ll hear from , Partner and head of the Data Privacy practice at , who brings a rare perspective from working across startups, regulators, and investors. He’ll share patterns he’s seen repeatedly… what creates problems, what quietly increases value, and where founders tend to misjudge risk.

We’ll cover:

How data contributes to defensibility and enterprise value
Where data collection and structure create hidden risk
What investors notice early… and what only surfaces in diligence
What “good enough” data hygiene actually looks like at different stages

We’ll close with live Q&A to translate all of this into next steps based on your company, your data, and where you are in the fundraising process.

This session is designed for founders who want fewer surprises, smoother fundraises, and a clearer understanding of how their data actually impacts outcomes.
