Raising Capital for Tech Startups
How To Get The Funding That Maximizes Your Value
Tech startups are rather unique when it comes to financing growth and raising capital. Unlike more traditional businesses, young technology companies offering SaaS or cloud platforms and other subscription services don’t typically have many hard assets, but they are often quick to generate revenue, scale easily, and can operate with high margins.
Today, tech startups have more capital solutions to choose from than traditional debt financing and equity financing via angel investors and venture capitalists. You don’t have to use your house to personally guarantee a bank loan, and you don’t need to fork over a chunk of equity early on that could have been millions of dollars in your pocket.
Of course, with more options comes the difficulty of navigating a wide field of complex financial instruments and different types of investors, while knowing every decision you make will impact your future.
Don’t panic. We’ve put our insights from more than a decade of experience financing tech startups into an easy-to-use resource that will help you prepare for this journey, without slowing down!
