Overview
Investment Analysis allows companies to develop the optimal funding plan without having to commit to the funding process.
Preparing for the next funding round, whether at Seed, Venture or Growth stages, requires a number of important questions to be answered well ahead of starting the campaign. That’s why we intentionally separate this vital preparatory step from the funding process itself.
The most valuable resource a founder has is their time. Being prepared ensures that this precious time is not wasted pitching an incomplete story, or meeting with poorly matched investors.
