Once you understand how your startup will run and what the expenses will be, it's time to raise your capital. There are many options to choose from, Bootstrapping or Crowdfunding can rely on the people around you, family and friends, local and online generosity, to fund your startup. Or, you can gain investors, by pitching your company equity and/or future capital to Institutional investors or Angel investors. Be sure no matter which route you choose you have a pitch that no investor could miss out on. Looking for more?

Fun facts of the European fundraising ecosystem: 1) There are over 3,600 funds in Europe investing into startups. 2) ~50% of the last $100B raised by investors is for Seed Stage investment. 3) A fundraise averages 240 hours for founding teams = 6 months full time. Not really fun facts, The VC landscape is opaque. Identifying relevant and deploying investors is a Sisyphean task. Investor relations is a hard skill and needs to be cultivated over time #investorrelations #vc #founderslife https://openround.vc

These aren't fun facts at all...reality is endurance. The industry adage is you only need 1 yes... we have a database and a CRM thats free for early stage startups get a start. Spend less time maintaining spreadsheets and more time executing your vision. #founderjourney #investorrelations #CRM #database #community

A hard truth of the current #fundraising environment is that when it comes to proving momentum, the goal posts continue to shift. While revenue thresholds that earn founders the right to raise their next round have gone up significantly in absolute terms, capital eligibility is also very much about standing out from the peer group. And ideally a peer group that hasn’t “burned” investors recently. This is one of the many topics my fellow panelists Lucas Timberlake and John Clark Higgins and I covered at our New York Tech Week panel on Tuesday. We also touched on another related and important matter: if you’re a #startup #founder who keeps hearing “not yet” or “I need to see more traction,” what do you do with that? Some founders check back in with the VC after a few months with a fundraising update but little business progress, explaining that they are waiting for the capital to get more done. Other founders really lean into business development and find a way to deliver growth rather than excuses. Those entrepreneurs most definitely impress and win over investors. With so many events and parties happening this week, I’m glad we were able to create a curated, intimate alternative where both attendees and panelists alike felt engaged in a deep conversation. Thanks again Arina Shulga for hosting!   #NYtechweek #Fintech Altari Ventures

🤔 How can a $200 million fund change the landscape for Black entrepreneurs? Today marks a pivotal moment as the NAACP unveils NAACP Capital, a groundbreaking $200 million fund of funds designed to support emerging venture funds that focus on uplifting people of color. In collaboration with Kapor Capital and Kapor Center, along with nine other venture partners, this initiative aims to bridge the significant funding gap highlighted by Crunchbase last year—where Black founders only captured less than 1% of venture capital. This strategic move not only amplifies access to capital but also fosters innovation and diversity within the startup ecosystem. Imagine what could happen if we empower more diverse voices! The launch signifies hope and commitment in creating equity across various sectors while paving pathways for future leaders. What do you think will be the ripple effects in our communities?
