📍 Ottawa, Ontario
🏢 Hosted by Invest Ottawa
Invest Ottawa is presenting a session on business funding from a legal perspective on September 28, 2026. This event will explore the legal considerations and structures involved in raising capital for businesses, including equity financing, debt instruments, and regulatory compliance. The session is aimed at entrepreneurs and business professionals who need to understand the legal framework around funding and investment.
Why it’s worth going
Finance and accounting students will gain valuable insight into the legal and regulatory aspects of corporate finance, which are essential for roles in investment banking, corporate accounting, and financial advisory. Understanding the legal structures of funding agreements, equity versus debt financing, and compliance requirements complements financial statement analysis and valuation skills. This knowledge is particularly relevant if you’re interested in working with startups, venture capital, or corporate finance teams where funding decisions have both financial and legal implications.
Going in prepared
Familiarize yourself with basic financing terminology such as equity, debt, convertible notes, and term sheets before attending. If you’re studying corporate finance or financial accounting, review how different financing instruments appear on financial statements and their implications for financial ratios. Prepare questions about how accountants and finance professionals work with legal teams during fundraising processes. Bring materials to take detailed notes, as the legal nuances of funding structures can be complex and worth reviewing later.
