You will almost certainly get a rent free period and the landlord will probably bear the costs of a build-out to customize the premises to your operation.

I’m really impressed. It is rare to meet somebody who embodies, in one place, all the things that make up the culture and ethics of a company. I can’t wait to meet but one thing before we do.
