Splitting the Pie

An equity split agreed in a hurry can feel unfair within a few years and puts investors off. This guide sets out the common ways founders divide ownership.

Included with every Future Founders and Founders Ticket, along with the whole library (117 guides, worth £2,925, 12 months' access).

Inside this guide

  • Contribution-based versus forward-looking splits
  • Vesting schedules investors recognise
  • Adding a late co-founder or handling a founder who steps back

Who it's for

Co-founders agreeing who owns what, or revisiting a split made in a hurry.
