The Art of Raising Capital

Learn What Venture Capitalists and Investors Look for in Investable Companies

What you'll learn:

• build investable companies and become investable entrepreneurs.
• think about a business opportunity in terms of investablility (from an investors standpoint).
• think about the many ways they can de-risk a business opportunity.
• understand the basics around raising capital and the next steps to take.

This course is meant to teach people how to build investable companies and become investable entrepreneurs. Not all businesses are investable opportunities. There are certain traits that investors look for in companies they want to add to their portfolio. But above all - investors are looking to make investments with a mitigated risk profile. This course will outline the basics of how investors think, and how entrepreneurs can build their company to appeal to an investment from a venture capital or private equity firm.
