About this Event

This presentation will demystify the capital raise process and show founders how to build the financial infrastructure and investor-ready materials that inspire confidence and close checks. It will provide a proven framework that helps founders go from vague decks and ad-hoc spreadsheets to strategic clarity and capital readiness.
Attendees will walk away with:
-A clear understanding of the 6-phase capital raise framework
-The key materials investors expect
-How to tailor your raise to investor types (VCs vs. angels vs. friends/family)
-Tips to avoid trust-killing inconsistencies between your story and your numbers
-What “capital efficiency” means and why investors look for it
-Best practices for due diligence readiness and post-raise reporting
-Confidence in presenting your opportunity—and clarity on what comes next
