Update Data Room and Determine Progression
Upload the final, validated Governance Pack, decision logs, and board calendars directly to the venture's formal data room under the dedicated Legal and Risk Governance folder. Update the Venture DNA records and decide whether to progress to stage progression, expert escalation, or linked tasks.
Completing this action secures the venture's governance assets in an investor-ready format and updates the venture's strategic trajectory. It maintains data room hygiene and ensures clear governance continuity as the venture scales into higher-growth stages.
The founder must provide an updated, organised data room section titled 'Legal and Risk Governance' containing all approved artefacts, alongside an updated Venture DNA record. The founder must also produce a formal decision log entry specifying the next recommended task or escalation pathway.
