Scale-Up Leadership Series: Capital Strategy for the Next Stage
Session 2: Capital Strategy for the Next Stage – Funding, Valuation & Exit Readiness
LSE Generate are proud to announce a brand new partnership with BDO. The Scale-Up Leadership Series is a high-impact programme designed for later-stage founders ready to move from growth momentum to sustained scale. Tailored for LSE students and alumni building established ventures, the series combines strategic insight, practical frameworks, and peer-to-peer exchange.
The programme launches with a curated networking reception bringing together founders, BDO advisers, selected investors, and members of the LSE entrepreneurial community. Designed to spark peer learning from day one, the evening will include facilitated introductions and informal discussion around common scaling challenges.
Session two covers "Capital Strategy for the Next Stage - Funding, Valuation & Exit Readiness". Raising capital at later stages requires sharper strategy and stronger positioning. This session dives into funding routes (growth equity, debt, secondary transactions), valuation drivers, investor expectations, and preparing for potential exits. Founders will gain insight into structuring deals, protecting equity, and building businesses that are both investable and resilient.
