​Funding Tactics Live What Investors Don't Tell You

​June 24, 2026 · 2:00pm ET / 11:00am PT · Live on Zoom · 60 Minutes Free for IC Members · $25 General Admission

​Most founders spend months in investor meetings without ever finding out why the answer was no.

​This event changes that.

​Investors Circle brings together three founders who have raised serious capital — each sharing three specific tactics that made a measurable difference in closing their round. Not theory. Not storytelling advice. The real moves: the ones that turned investor interest into signed term sheets.

​Hosted by Juan Arango — who has facilitated over $430 million in capital formation working with hundreds of founders across the angel investing ecosystem — and Don Megrath, Executive Director of Investors Circle and Founder & Managing Director of VectorPoint Ventures.

​What you'll walk away with:

• ​9 field-tested tactics from founders who've done it at the angel and early-stage level

• ​A clear picture of what impact investors actually respond to — and what kills deals quietly

• ​Specific frameworks for warm intro sequencing, soft circle building, and closing momentum

• ​A direct path to IC's Ready to Raise 6-session coaching cohort if you want to go deeper

​This event is free for all IC members — Entrepreneur Members, Full Members, and Associates — as part of your IC membership. General admission is $25.

​Presented by Investors Circle in partnership with Juan Arango and VectorPoint Ventures.
