Fundraising: Key Issues
Why do so many startups fail to raise funds despite a promising project? Because they underestimate the real stakes of a funding round. This module guides you to gain an in-depth understanding of the critical factors for successful fundraising.
Intended for startup CEOs, growth-stage founders, or investors, this module can be taken as a stand-alone unit or integrated into the e-learning course “Innovation, Strategy & Development,” designed to master all the axes of growth and transformation of a business.
In this module, you will:
• Understand why fundraising is not just a financial issue
• Identify what is at stake for the CEO as well as for the investor (valuation, dilution, growth drivers, credibility)
• Avoid blind spots that can slow down or compromise a fundraising
• Lay the foundations of an investment strategy aligned with your ambitions
Do you need an informed vision before entering into discussions with investors? This module provides the essential keys to understanding how to pitch more accurately, more powerfully, and more credibly.
What you will gain from it: strategic benchmarks, a clear reading grid, and the right framework to prepare or analyze a fundraising at its right level of stakes.
