Start-Up Funding

The Holy Grail of Start-Ups: Angel Investors

At Social Gillie, we have walked with partners who have gone through the pangs of funding a Start-up. We have walked our own entrepreneurial ventures and we have both seen and felt the challenge, walked through the preparations of presenting to Angel Investors and Venture Capitalists, experienced the agony of giving a great performance that fell on deaf ears. We have also experienced the elation of winning that A, B or C round of funding that gets the company launched in a new direction. We also know the challenge of the “boot strap” start up.

Venture Funding Resources

We know that for many of our clients and many in our audience, this is a major issue – to launch their expansion or get new products to market. So, as the capital is beginning to loosen a bit in the Venture Capital arena, we at Social Gillie are providing a new channel on our blog. Follow us for updates in the Venture Capital and Angel Funding arena – under our “start-ups” category. We will share news, ideas and current events in Venture Funding as we find them, learn them and experience them with our clients or partners.

Fund Hunting Rituals

A helpful article has recently come out from Forbes, on the joys and labors of the “courting ritual” of venture funding.  We will keep you posted as new and insightful information arises.

Happy fund-hunting to all!
