Entrepreneur lessons from a venture capitalist- why do startups fail? I’ve seen startups with substantial funding falter and fail, despite their seemingly strong financial backing. It’s a perplexing scenario that prompts an in-depth examination of the underlying causes. Why do these funded startups fail? From my experience, the top four reasons are: running out of cash, having a non-viable business model, failing to gain enough traction, and being outcompeted.

An interview with Hypepotamus a few months ago: COVID-era inflated startup valuations are a thing of the past. Investors are now expecting startups to exhibit higher and more reliable revenue numbers to secure even Series A funding. As our managing partner Sid Mookerji points out in a recent feature in Hypepotemus, it's a supply and demand problem: more companies are attempting to raise funds, and fewer funds are writing checks. So, it's more important than ever to focus on revenue. #VentureCapital #VC #Startup #Entrepreneur https://lnkd.in/egShD_yz
