What is “vesting” for a co-founder?

“Vesting” is the process by which a co-founder’s ownership of their equity (shares) in the startup becomes absolute over a period of time or upon achieving specific milestones. It ensures that co-founders earn their stake through continued contribution, protecting the company and other founders if someone departs prematurely. A common structure includes a “cliff” period before vesting begins.
