Across the US, the number of active VC investors has dropped 25% compared to last year, according to #Pitchbook. But our doors are open. If you are an immigrant founder, or are interested in hearing more about our fund’s thesis that #immigrant entrepreneurs are objectively more successful, reach out. https://lnkd.in/dGCAK-vF #BostonVCs #BostonVC #VCBoston #Bostontech #Bostonstartups #startupsBoston

The odds are against you! Your company is more likely to die, than succeed. The only guarantee is that as a founder you will have existential moments (perhaps many) that push you to your limits. Astute investors know this. They look for founders that won't give up, and have the fortitude to persevere through the tough times that invariably will come. That's why so many people love what we do at Birchal. We help companies to tell stories, build communities and raise capital online, from arguably the largest pool of capital available to startups and SMEs. Direct engagement with founders is one of the most often cited benefits of investors on the Birchal platform. Thanks so much to Jacob Parker and Fiskil for the chat recently at Intersekt about how exciting the opportunity ahead for CSF is here in Australia.
