June 9, 2011 | 6:00-8:30 PM | Two Palo Alto Square | Palo Alto
Event Sponsor: Morgan, Lewis & Bockius, LLP

Many of Silicon Valley's most successful start-ups have capitalized on their relationships with strategic partners and investors, taking advantage of key customer relationships and sharing development costs for new products. However, working with a strategic investor for a start-up also has its risks with respect to investment terms and the liquidity event.

How can start-ups and venture capital investors that co-invest with strategic investors better manage their relationships with strategic investors and partners?
