show moreOur guest, David Chang, is the ideal advisor to help founders navigate the tumultuous fundraising landscape.
David is an entrepreneur and angel investor who has held operating roles at six startups (5 were acquired!), and he has invested in 60 companies.
As a leader in the entrepreneurship community, David holds several advisor/board memberships, and he was Entrepreneur-in-Residence at Harvard Business School and Director of the Babson Summer Venture Program.
Earlier in his career, David led the PayPal Boston office, co-founded the Start Tank innovation space, and he held roles at TripAdvisor (IAC), m-Qube (Verisign), edocs (Siebel), SnapMyLife (Exclaim Mobility), and Goldman Sachs.
He recently formed an Angel group, TBD Angels, which has invested in 11 startups since April, 2020!
David dives deep into best practices for raising funds during a pandemic, including:
* how to socialize to fill your investor funnel
* why you don't want to ask for money
* how to present milestones to investors (running out of time is not a milestone!)
* don't share everything at once
* how much capital do you really need to raise
* valuation during a pandemic
* debt vs. equity investments
You'll learn a lot from David and from the terrific questions from the audience!
