Can someone here share first hand experience as an founder or as a core member, the experience they had when they approached a venture capitalist/investor to raise funds for their business? I have scanned a lot online but couldn't find any valuable post where people shared their experience trying to raise funds for the first time in India!

And here I’m looking to raise fund for my startup.

Analyst

Currently at mid-mvp stage fintech startup looking for pre-seed funding to resume their progress. Does this qualify the requirements to achieve a pre-seed funding ? I bootstrapped the startup myself at the beginning and we have not yet reached the stage where we can present a MVP for investors which is a huge setback we are currently facing. I tried to apply to few Indian based pre-seed ventures but all I got was just rejection mails not sure why. Prepared a pitch deck and a company structure profile although all our employees are remote. I just don't know who or how to approach an angel investor or a ventures firm so lacking expertise in this field. Suggestions would be appreciated ☺️

Is lightspeed ventures a good choice for pre-revenue startups

Hey guys,

I am currently struggling with my startup and it’s product launch. Having talked to most of the VCs and getting ghosted, what should I do?

I have built the product and it’s ready to be launched, have a small team but I am a solo founder. 

Applied to YC and even got referral from 2-3 YC founders, still no interview. Looking for $500k.

Let me know if anyone knows anyone ❤️

Funding for my startup

Currently I’m in the stage of building the MVP of my idea. Idea is not something unique. Already has a lot of competitors. In that scenario what is the chance of somebody investing in my startup. And I am also not from any tier 1 colleges or not an ex employee of any unicorn startups. In fact  I am a college drop out from a tier 3 college. What is chance of I’m getting funding?

How to raise angel funding for my startup?

Software Developer

Acquiring funding for a startup in india has become a hassle. I myself have been doing research on seed funding Vc's and angel investors. All they ask is pitch deck and LinkedIn profile. Which they don't even go through and just reply with an email saying we are not eligible for funding. On the other side US and other countries are getting funding at the ideation stage. I guess we can't even go for crowdfunding. Started building MVP, but halfway through the hurdle and unable to resume the development due to limited resources.

Tired of applying everywhere for funding.

I am building a D2C fashion brand and need to raise money (20 Lakhs) to get things off the ground. I am from Tier-I IIT and a single founder. 

I have been trying to approach investors through multiple mediums. Cold mailing / LinkedIn. But things haven't worked. 

College alumni also don't seem to respond, let alone give any warm intro. 

How should I go about the fund raising process?
