Carving Your Fundraising Story Right: A Hands-On Workshop for Pre-Seed & Seed Stage Founders
Raising your first institutional round isn’t just about traction or market size — it's about crafting a compelling narrative that cuts through the noise and sticks with investors.
Join us for a highly curated, closed-room workshop led by investors and founders who've seen these journeys from both sides of the table. This is not another panel discussion — it’s a working session where you’ll actively build and refine your fundraising story.
Who should attend:
Early-stage B2B SaaS founders with $0–$500K ARR, who are preparing to raise their Seed or Pre-Series A round.
