Jurie / The venture brief A private planning template for your next business decision. A short starting point for a conversation about your business. This template is general information, not legal advice. Keep this brief for yourself. Do not include confidential information, client names, privileged material, credentials or sensitive personal information. 1. THE COMPANY What are you building, and who is it for? What stage is the company at today? 2. THE NEXT MOVE Are you starting out, raising capital, shipping a product or scaling up? What decision or milestone is coming next? 3. THE BUSINESS CONTEXT Who needs to be involved in the decision? What commercial outcome matters most? What timing or dependencies should be understood? 4. THE QUESTIONS What are you clear about already? Which questions about ownership, funding, contracts, product or data need professional advice? What assumptions need to be checked? 5. A USEFUL OUTCOME What would help you make the next decision? What options or trade-offs do you need to understand? What would a clearly scoped piece of legal work cover? Do not rely on this template as a legal checklist. Any actual legal advice must account for the facts, applicable jurisdiction and an agreed professional engagement.
