​Founder Series | Raising feels weird right now. How much should i actually raise?

​Event Description: Fundraising looks different than it used to, and many founders are unsure how to navigate it.

​In this session, we’ll talk about:

• ​How much to raise (and why)

• ​Timing, pacing, and expectations

• ​What “enough” really means at this stage

​This is a practical, open conversation not advice from a slide deck.

​This is for you if:

• ​You’re thinking about a seed round

• ​You’re unsure how to size it

• ​You want to make intentional decisions, not reactive ones

​About this space: Our sessions are intentionally not recorded so people can speak honestly.

​You’re welcome to share general lessons or insights you take away on social but please don’t attribute comments or stories to specific people.

​Participation looks different for everyone:

• ​You’re welcome to speak, ask questions in chat, or just listen

• ​Cameras are optional

• ​Listening counts as participating

​This is a global space. Different accents, levels of English, time zones, and startup contexts are all expected here.

​These conversations help shape future resources (writing, courses, tools) - the goal is to reflect what founders are actually experiencing, not what startup media says you should be experiencing.

​If you’re dealing with this right now, showing up live really does matter.
