Join us to tackle explorers' top questions: starting ideas, choosing paths, finding co-founders, funding, and i-lab resources.
Raising venture capital seems like the first, critical step towards building a successful startup. But is it necessary? And what do you learn AFTER you raise venture capital, that you wish you'd known BEFORE? We're bringing together a panel of startup founders who have all played the venture capital game - and share advice they wish someone had shared with them before raising.
As the Explorer Advisor, every week I meet with Explorers who are early in the entrepreneurial journey.
Here are the top 5 questions I hear from them, again and again:
1. How to get started on an idea?
2. How to choose between ideas?
3. How to find a co-founder or teammate?
4. How to get funding?
5. How to best take advantage of i-lab resources?
If you also have questions like these, bring your notebook and let's get started! And yes, other questions are welcome too. :)
