Main Challenges. For achieving the mentioned high performance gains we had to develop advanced clustering schemes that ensure user-centric cooperation for almost all users. At the same time, the inter- cluster interference had to be minimized. Reducing the overall interference floor in the system with respect to intra- as well as inter-cluster interference was another high level goal. The use of appropriate types of user grouping and scheduling proved to be very important and powerful tools. Another task was to find precoders with high performance, low complexity and at the same time robustness against imperfections. Finally, as discussed above, interference mitigation by its nature provides gains only in interference limited scenarios. We assume that the system is working under such conditions.

Main Challenges. Similar to equity instruments, there is no recovery provided in the case of bankruptcy. Investors could prioritise owning preferred stocks, which would enable them to receive control rights, board seat, veto rights, and/or other economic rights. Investors are not remunerated 12 for the early-stage risk they are taking. In fact, they get paid only when the company raise additional funding. Unlike debt instrument, a SAFE does not accrue interest and it lacks a maturity date, which entails that there is no guarantee of equity ownership for the investor. (Hypothetical) Example of SAFE Company ImpactFly is a startup that aims to revolutionize the use of drones to measure access to electrification and clean drinking water in rural areas. The company is evenly owned by two founders (2 million shares each, 4 million in total) who decide to raise capital via a USD 500,000 SAFE offered by an investor. Once the agreement is signed, the two founders can use the money received to process the building of their venture. After 16 months the company is booming and the sales pipeline is skyrocketing, but the company is still not profitable and ImpactFly needs to raise additional funds (e.g. Series A round) in order to scale their business. The two founders approach a venture capital fund to raise an additional USD 1 million for 25% of the ownership, translating into a pre-money valuation of USD 4 million. Summary of information Pre-money valuation of USD 4 million Number of outstanding shares of 4 million SAFE Investment of USD 500,000 Share price pre-money of USD 1 Let’s look at the transaction under three different scenarios: The SAFE is offered with a 15% discount The SAFE investor is entitled to a discount of 15%, therefore he or she will be able to convert at 85% of the price, providing the investor with 11% of the post-money (USD 5 million) ownership. The SAFE is offered with a valuation cap of USD 3 million The SAFE investor is entitled to convert at 75% of the price as a result of a valuation cap of USD 3 million, providing the investor with 12% of the post- money (USD 5 million) ownership. The SAFE is offered with a 15% discount and a valuation cap of USD 3 million The investor is entitled to convert at the minimum price between the discount price and the valuation cap price. In this case, the investor would apply the cap allowing him or her to obtain a 12% ownership instead of 11%. Case studies and additional resources about SAFE can be found here.
