Funding the Early Stages

Many actions and decisions made during the early stages of a startup’s venture are done using art as much as science, and that’s definitely the case with fundraising.  Startups raise money either because they want the funding in order to accomplish more faster or because they need the funding in order to keep pursuing their dream.  This curriculum follows a logical flow of topics to help plan and execute a successful fundraising campaign during the early stages.
