Envision x VCFamilia - What we wished we knew about fundraising

​One of the greatest challenges for first-time founders is not knowing what they don’t know. Join VCFamilia and the Envision Accelerator, in our first event of a three-part series, in which we will highlight what founders should know about the building process. We are kicking off this series with our first event - What we wished we knew about fundraising!

This panel discussion will dive into the fundraising process today from an entrepreneurial, investor, and legal perspective. We will dive into topics from balancing building and fundraising, fundraising options, and terms founders should know. 

• ​What fundraising options should founders be exploring for raising capital?

• ​What fundraising terms should founders be familiar with? 

• ​When should startups seek legal counsel and what should they be looking for in their counsel?

• ​How should founders approach fundraising - investment timeline, investment amount, runway?

• ​As a founder, how do you balance building and the fundraising process?

​Our panelists are:
Cheryl Campos: Head of Venture Growth and Partnerships, Republic
Daniel Lobaton: Founder & CEO, Eklow
Chris Errico: Co-Chair - US Startup Program, Dentons

​Our moderator is Mita Carriman: Co-Founder & CEO, Adventurely
