Understanding your value is not here just to talk about the valuation. You need to know the value you provide to customers, to the planet and the purpose of your existence as a company beyond profit. A USP sets you aside as why you're special. I think too many people think they need to be original just because everyone says so that they forget to do what works. Know exactly how your business adds value and could be valued by others. A cheaper solution to insulin for example? Of extreme value to the whole planet. Problem is - it's removal is also of high value to your competitors.

Look into venture capital as added plus, not a preset requirement if you are a early-stage founder. Raise funding from angels, incubators, HNWIs and your earliest customers first which are naturally aligned in terms of business goals to build a product that they would pay for, rather than corporate investors looking at short-term ROE/ROI. Be generous with equity for those who are backing you in the beginning, but deeply consider who you let in onto the cap table.

Beyond financial considerations, it's important to evaluate the social impact and alignment with the organization's mission in fundraising efforts. Assess how potential investors can contribute to advancing your mission. Look for partners who not only provide financial support but also share your values and commitment.
