Raising Your First ₹10 Crore: What It Actually Takes
Raising your first ₹10 crore is not a pitch-deck exercise. It is a capital strategy and execution challenge.
A fundable round must connect the capital being raised to clear value inflection points, demonstrate venture-scale return potential, withstand investor scrutiny and protect the founder’s long-term ownership.
Join build3 for a candid fundraising strategy session with:
Varun Chawla, Founder of build3 and Co-founder of 91springboard, who brings experience building at scale, raising institutional capital and now backing early-stage founders.
Sanya Kalani, former founder of Younglings and Accelerator & Investments lead at build3, who works closely with founders on capital strategy, investor readiness and fundraising execution.
The session will cover:
Structuring a milestone-backed fundraising ask
Building an evidence-led investment narrative
Aligning your pitch deck, financial model and metrics
Identifying investors by thesis, stage and cheque size
Running investor outreach as a disciplined pipeline
Preparing for diligence and investment committee scrutiny
Negotiating valuation, dilution, liquidation preferences and governance rights
This session is designed for founders with early validation or traction who are preparing for a seed or first institutional round within the next six to eight months.
