Entrepreneurs' Workshop: "Funding the start-up journey" - lessons from the sharp end
6:00pm
It was wonderful to have have Chris Kaye (1991), the founder of Sherpa, an insurtech start-up that has raised $10m in early stage funding through debt, equity, and grants, and from angel, VC and strategic investors around the world, deliver an insightful workshop about his warts-and-all experience on the different funding options they have taken, which ones are best suited to companies at different stages, and facilitate a discussion on the early stage funding outlook.
It was fascinating to hear that there have been as many failed funding efforts as there have been successful ones!
