  • Skillsets of the founding team and early employees and collaborators required.
  • Information about the team.
  • The team's competitive advantage.

  • Business model.
  • Funding requirements tied to milestones.
  • Potential Risks.
  • Actions suggested to mitigate risks.
  • Attribution of work to team members, advisors, and others.

  • Details of the solution being proposed.
  • Comparison of alternative solutions.
  • Stakeholder maps and actions required to reach them.
