MASTERCLASS ON FUND RAISING

ARE YOU AN INVESTMENT READY START-UP? If yes, let's work with you!

With the advent of #VocalforLocal and a #Self-Reliant India, entrepreneurs and founders may resort to debt funding which is considerably less risky for the investor but adds more pressure on the founder and start-up than equity financing to pay back the debt in due course of time. However, if the project is Technically Feasible and Financially Viable, revenue forecasting should be met with the team’s hard work and sales and thereafter post re-payment, the business can proceed on Auto-mode.

If you are an entrepreneur seeking investment in a project, you must understand how the prospective investor or lender will evaluate your project. There are Government Statutory funds such as the Technology Development Board, the Fund of Funds and other traditional lending mechanisms such as the banks which tend to evaluate the Technical Feasibility and Economic Viability of such projects. For most of the entrepreneurs who are mission-driven, this Masterclass will help them to understand the critical aspects which they must fulfill during Technical Assessment, establish a Product-Market Fit and benchmark debt/equity ratio with regard to the industry, determine cost of the project, including how to create financial projections well beyond the duration of the project.
