Document background
The Equity Share Agreement Startup is a crucial document for Belgian startups seeking to formalize investment relationships and equity arrangements. It is primarily used when a startup is issuing new shares or when existing shares are being transferred to new investors, whether they are venture capitalists, angel investors, or strategic partners. The agreement, compliant with Belgian corporate law, particularly the Companies and Associations Code, covers essential aspects such as share valuation, shareholder rights, governance structures, and exit mechanisms. This document type is particularly important in the Belgian startup ecosystem, where specific regulatory requirements and tax implications must be considered. The agreement typically includes provisions for future funding rounds, share transfer restrictions, and protective measures for both the company and investors, making it a foundational document for startup growth and investment relationships.
