During this episode, following the panel Ivan Kikkhoo of Navigate Ventures gave an in-depth talk on “Raising Growth Capital.” Three things for both founders and investor to keep in mind from Ivan’s talk:
1. It’s about the Team. Why are you and the team you’ve assembled the right group to accomplish and succeed in your market? Furthermore, why is now the moment?
2. Do you have “Product-Market Fit?” Many forget this critical piece when growing their company beyond the MVP stage. Find it, own it, and know how to keep it no matter how things may shift in your industry.
3. Capital efficiency. Have you been capital efficient to this point? Are you thinking ahead on minimizing spend and maximizing value where possible?
We also had Rana Gujral, angel investor and CEO of Behavioral Signals speaking about “Using Behavioral Signals From Voice to Predict Impact.”
