Closing: Completion of a financing round

Closing refers to the final conclusion of a financing round in the startup world, in which the agreed investments are officially channelled into the company and the corresponding shares are transferred to the new investors. This process marks a crucial milestone for startups as it secures access to new capital that can be used for growth, product development and market expansion. A successful closing requires careful preparation, negotiation and legal documentation to protect the interests of both parties and lay the foundation for a fruitful collaboration.
