Getting your seed money the right way

Details

We are renewing our group and at our first meetup we'll deal with the questions that each entrepreneur asks:

• What would be the best funding source for my venture?

• What is the difference between an angel investment and a VC?

• What should I expect if I go to a startup accelerator program?

We are putting together three people who deal with early stage startups and who will share their vision and their values while working with the entrepreneurs.
