The State of Venture Capital: What Startups Need to Know for a Successful Raise SF #TechWeek
Venture capital firms are more selective and demanding when it comes to financing these days, especially with regard to first financings by early stage startups. Join us for an informative panel where we’ll be discussing questions and topics such as:
When does it make sense to start approaching venture capital firms for investment?
What does it take for a startup to raise its first priced round these days?
What are early, growth, and late stage VCs investing in today?
What kind of business and financial metrics should a founder have in place before approaching venture firms for a priced round raise, whether Series Seed or Series A/B/C?
What do venture capitalists predict about the venture market for the remainder of 2024?
