What options are best offered to investors? That's not technically true. Ownership and control are two different concepts. It is possible to own more than 50% of a company and still not control it. Control is determined by the contracts you signed like shareholder agreements, and the company bylaws, and who is on the board of directors. That said, you have a point that giving an investor 60% of a startup is too much. |
