Understanding venture capital and angel investors

Section 4 : Navigating the investment process

100%

Whether you're dealing with VCs or angel investors, navigating the investment process requires preparation and a clear understanding of what investors are looking for. You'll need to present a solid business plan, financial projections and a compelling case for why your business can deliver returns on investment. Angel investors may place more emphasis on the passion and vision of the founders, while VCs tend to focus heavily on scalability and market opportunity.

Due diligence is key for both parties, as investors will thoroughly vet your business to assess potential risks and rewards before committing funds. It is very crucial that you also research investors, understand their expectations and evaluate whether their involvement aligns with your vision for the business.

Failing to do so could result in misaligned goals, strained relationships, or even jeopardising the long-term success of your business. It's important to ensure that the investors you bring on board share your vision and are genuinely supportive of your business's direction and growth.
