Raising Smarter: The playbook for a faster fundraise
Recent data shows it is taking founders longer than ever to raise capital - with the average journey from Seed to Series C stretching close to 10 years. Yet despite this trend, some businesses are still closing rounds in record speed. What separates those who drag through the process from those who accelerate is not always obvious, but the difference is real.
At this event, we’ll uncover the factors that make the difference between a long, drawn-out raise and one that closes swiftly. Alongside the keynote, a panel of experts will tackle live fundraising challenges from the audience - troubleshooting the issues that often stall momentum and answering the tough questions founders rarely get the chance to ask.
If you’re actively raising or preparing to raise, this is your opportunity to understand what really accelerates a fundraise and how to approach your next round with confidence.
