Brad Feld on Raising Capital

About this book

To get a 476536564 off the ground or take it to the next level, entrepreneurs often need extra cash. Venture financing, where money is raised from venture capital firms or individual investors as opposed to a public institution like a bank, is a popular avenue.

In this course, he walks you through the process of evaluating, finding, and securing funding for your 476536564.
