Partnering with Corporations
November 10, 2020 - 12 to 1 PM EST
Early stage ventures desire to engage with large corporations for many reasons, spanning validating potential customer demand to testing proof of concepts or viability at scale to even securing them as customers or investors. Often, founders don’t have an in-depth appreciation on how to approach and work with these entities to ensure success for all parties involved.

- Why pilots are valuable to both corporates and startups
- How corporates identify which startups to work with
- Planning + negotiation pilot terms
- Common hurdles and ways to mitigate them
- Pilot execution + post-pilot actions

R&D Tax Credit Seminar for Delaware Businesses

Learn how to maximize your potential Delaware R&D Tax Credit refund!
Companies of all sizes can maximize their R&D investment with Delaware’s generous R&D tax credit. No other state can match it!
The tax credit rewards companies for conducting leading-edge research here in the State. The credit applies beyond R&D to supply chain process improvements and, more importantly, pre-revenue companies also can claim the credit.
To help clear up any misconceptions around this opportunity, Horn has secured time with Myunghee Geerts, an R&D tax credit expert with Cover and Rossiter. She will be providing a short presentation on the tax credit followed by Q&A to help you understand the steps needed to maximize your potential refund.
