We need someone to help raise funds for discounted growth unicorn companies' Series A/B/C shares to solve liquidity for founders and early investors. Please message me if you are interested in doing this for $$$. Background: We are overwhelmed with excellent deal flow worth $40M and have already raised $2M in April. You will be raising for specific deals, so it is easier than raising a fund. #investments #vc #fundraising

First-time founders maynot know about fundable ideas that VCs interest Y Combinator is the most famous accelerator around the world. They also invest as a VCs in pre-seed/seed round.

Is everyone launching VCs nowadays? In late 2022, I enrolled in the VC Lab programme but the timing wasn’t quite right, so I dropped out. Now, with better timing after selling my business, I’ve rejoined the VC Lab again (here is a spoiler into my future plans 🙈) Sifted tracked only 40 new first-time funds with a first or second close in 2023, a decrease from over 60 in 2022. As of 2024, only 18 new VCs have been launched in Europe. Anyone in my network launching a VC fund or considering it? How are you navigating this process? #VC #VentureCapital #Fundraising #BusinessOpportunity

What's the most difficult thing about fundraising for a start-up founder? Thanks Danube Angels and Business Angels of Slovenia for inviting me to speak at the panel and share my experiences about raising investment for Moree. For most founders, raising investment is a hassle. Why? 💎 Fundraising is typically not your core skillset, ⏰ It takes away your time from building the business ❌ You have to be prepared to get a lot of IGNOREs and NOs What have other founders done to overcome these obstacles? For us, working with angel syndicates and agents has massively helped in getting in front of the right angels and saving us ample of time to get on with building our business! #founder #fundraising #preseed #startup #morereuselesswaste

The list of new VC funds is below $200M in size. #fundmanagers #Venturecapitalists #fundraising #Limitedpartners #Generalpartners #VCs #LPs #GPs

“He who has a why to live for can bear almost any how.” ― Friedrich Nietzsche As Matt points out; It's a very tough time to be building a new venture capital firm. But, I can't imagine doing anything else but build REFASHIOND Ventures: The Industrial Transformation Fund and The Worldwide Supply Chain Federation with Lisa Morales-Hellebo. Here's why we are building it; - The World is a Supply Chain (Published in October 2019, Link: https://lnkd.in/gfTd5mcs) - #WorkInProgress: Why I Am Building An Early Stage Supply Chain Innovation & Technology Rolling Fund (Published in March 2021, just 3 months before our launch in July 2021, Link: https://lnkd.in/eSFRiyHj) I fell asleep after midnight. I have been awake since 3:30 AM. I do not do this every night, but every day I wake up excited to get to work on behalf of the founders we have already backed, and on behalf of those we will soon back. It's not an easy road. Being an emerging manager is a humbling experience, but the startups we back are building The Supply Chains For Tomorrow - and that matters more than most people realize. OUR THESIS: REFASHIOND Ventures: The Industrial Transformation Fund invests in early stage startups refashioning legacy industries through Data & AI, Advanced Materials, Advanced Manufacturing, & Next Generation Supply Chains; Defensible through economic moats. We have made 64 investments in 56 startups since we launched in July 2021. We have 3 more startups in final due diligence; Our small team of 2 is slammed at the moment, but we'll add them to our portfolio soon enough. At most venture capital firms, Industrial Transformation & Supply Chain Technology is a tiny, emerging “area of interest” . . . At REFASHIOND Ventures: The Industrial Transformation Fund, it’s our entire world. Join us. We are backed by some of the best in the business; Who have enabled us to get started, with more than $3,000,000 in committed capital. Join them. Personally, I have always wanted to become the kind of investor my parents deserved as they built various small business when I was growing up; One who finds, coaches, and nurtures startup founders' genius and enables it to flourish. We are in the early-stages of the largest sector-driven investment opportunity of our lifetime - the technology-driven refashioning, transformation, and reinvention of industrial value chains AND supply chains. Join us; We're just getting started. #IndustrialTransformation #SupplyChain #Innovation #Technology #Startups #VentureCapital #EmergingManagers #FindingGenius #SupplyChainsForTomorrow
