Sign up to join the lunch next week with Harlem Capital Partner Gabby Cazeau and Lynx Collective's Dorothy Chang here: https://lnkd.in/gBa_S8kJ
I've been a big fan of Harlem Capital and its approach to identifying and investing in founders who are often overlooked. By being extremely clear about their mission as well as rigorous & disciplined in their approach, they're well on their way to their goal of investing in 1000 diverse founders - and by the way, they're some of the most promising startups you'll see out there. So I'm really excited to sit down with Partner Gabby Cazeau and learn more about her approach and how founders can make their case for Harlem Capital to invest in them. If you're a founder in New York and you would like to join us for lunch next Tuesday, please let me know! We'll do a live interview followed by a casual lunch together. And if you can't make it - stay tuned - we'll share video clips from the interview afterwards so everyone can learn!

Some highlights from Lynx Collective's first Startup Fundraising Summit, which we held yesterday. There was great, actionable advice from all of our speakers, including: - Flybridge General Partner Jesse Middleton, on securing a lead investor: At the pre-seed round, optimize for time to close. Time is everything and your highest-conviction investors will move fastest. At the seed stage, optimize for funds that can continue to support you in future rounds. You will need to raise more money, and you want their continued support. - Alinea Ventures Co-Founder & Managing Partner Jessie Lam: I'm a former finance person, but if you're a pre-seed founder with no revenue, I don't give a shit about your model. It really doesn't matter at that stage! - VHS Ventures Founder & Managing Partner Sumeet Shah: A helpful resource for reaching a lot of relevant investors is www.whoisraising.vc - which connects startups with investors who are actively deploying capital. - Side Door Ventures Investing Partner Ashwini Anburajan: If you're a second-time technical founder, you can likely raise a pre-seed without having written a line of code. If you're not, you'll need to have a lot more to show. More insights & videos coming soon so we can share the knowledge beyond the ~100 founders & investors we were able to fit in person. If you were there, please share something that you learned! Huge thanks to our speakers, attendees & our amazing sponsors who support founder learning, growth & networking: Rho, Redrob & Foley Hoag LLP.
