While VCs are the toughest nut to crack, there are many other (often better) sources of seed capital that may be available to you.

Once we’ve executed all the steps above, we go to VCs and raise seed capital of $1-2m. Please note this is a personal initiative, not an initiative of any of the VC firms or other institutions with which I am affiliated. We build a basic deck together and ideally a simple demo. This work is unpaid. We’re off to the races!
