One of the biggest challenges that many founders face is fundraising. Most founders are excellent at growing their business and getting customers, but less proficient at the fundraising game. As such, many founders mismanage the process and end up not doing justice to their business. Some end up raising insufficient funds, accepting unfair and/or unfavorable terms, or diluting themselves too much with investors that they don’t even like. Needless to say, making fundraising mistakes has drastic implications on the health of the business and also affects the final reward that awaits successful founders. The good news is that many of these issues can be overcome through proper education, planning, and execution. From this workshop, you will be able to get into the mind of both VCs and angel investors. You will understand their portfolio thinking, financial mathematics, evaluation criteria, and mindset. This helps you position yourself best for a successful fundraising round. On top of this, we will also cover the actual fundraising process, due diligence, and managing your investors' post-investment. Note this workshop does not cover legal issues.
