In the startup ecosystem, sometimes there’s an impulse to party with the investor’s money. But does this backfire and when? What should you look out for when someone wants to throw money at your startup and what should you avoid? When and why should you reach out for funding and what amount of money should you aim for? Why is taking a million a "very conservative approach"? Finally - some notes on how to make a pitch deck and what red or green flags you should pay attention to when signing an investment agreement?
Maciej Sawicki and Borys Musielak from inSTREAMLY and SMOK VC discuss these important issues both from the founder and investor perspective. They also touch on the important aspects of this "complicated relationship" - expectations of each other and support.
