TechFrom科技源 9.28日，对于创业，创业团队无疑是最为重要，但是组建创业团队的时候，多个联合创始人之间如何确定和约定，相信很多国内创业者都会很难决定，今天，欧洲创业孵化器 seedcamp 公布了一份Founder Collaboration Agreement文档，给出了一些正规的描述，供创业者参考。我们techfrom科技源曾 在Facebook结盟欧洲创业孵化Seedcamp 还有美国Y Combinator该文，我们提到过欧洲创业孵化器 seedcamp。
该文来自Brown Rudnick 公司的 Tina Baker 起草，公布在seedcamp 的官方网站上，供创业者参考或者作为模板直接使用。
具体点解释：
你在创业的时候，很多情况下，是个人力量或者个人创意和主意开始，然后，引入联合创始人co-founders来组建团队，然后进行产品的开发或者直接进行天使融资或者种子融资。
就在你寻找联合创始人的时候，联合创始人之间如何确定合作方式以及更为重要的未来创始人之一退出时候，股权等如何处理等问题，有如下参考要点：

Option 1: [equally amongst the Collaborators]
方法1：均分公司股份的方式
Option 2: [as follows: Set out percentages per founder or team member]
方法2：设定出每一个创业初始团队人员（联合创始人）的股份比例

当某一个联合创始人退出该创业团队或者公司的时候，需要归还给创业公司多少比例的股份，

如果创业公司的大股东将股份出售给第三方公司的话，其他创业公司的持股人也要按照同样的条件处理（出售）其持有的股份。
另外，还有更多的信息要注意，各个创业者可以自行补充。
