Are you planning to fundraise for your startup but not sure where to start or what to focus on?
Or maybe you’re already trying to, but it somehow doesn’t work — reality appears not as bright as your expectations were. No worries, maybe all you need is a fresh way to approach fundraising.
I am here to help (Alexander Nevedovsky, 2x founder with an exit), roasting your pitch, giving you practical advice (from first and second-hand experience), and connecting you with the right people.
In total, I’ve raised about ~$2M across the 3 companies and helped other founders raise at least ~$3M. I’m not a guru, and I haven’t done it all, but I have many friends (founders, investors, and operators — see below) who will join me as experts and share their life experiences during the private Q&A sessions.
Pablo Sanzo, cohort #1
It was my first program of this type, so I didn’t have clear expectations. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the group. I loved being exposed to other people’s way of thinking on these challenges. I now have clearer view of what raising VC implies. If/when I pick back up the process of starting a project, I have a blueprint to follow. I also value that I can go back to the notes and videos from the course. I would recommend the bootcamp to founders with revenue but no knowledge of fundraising.
Dima Horshkov, cohort #1
The coolest thing that the bootcamp gave me was the opportunity to ask questions about my context and get answers from an experienced person (Alexander). The second thing is networking. And I'm not talking about other hustlers, but rather about angels. The third is the feeling that you are not alone, that there are other hustlers and they are doing something.
Denis Davydov, cohort #1
I really liked the bootcamp. It was precisely what I anticipated: a mix of theory, networking, and guidance. I adjusted and enhanced my mental models to be more in line with the realities of fundraising. There were gold nuggets in every session or meeting with the founders. If I had to pick just one, feedback on the pitch was definitely the most valuable part.
Vlad Ovsyannikov, cohort #1
It was an enriching experience for me and my team to work with Alexander and benefit from his valuable feedback and insights, which helped us to establish a structured fundraising process. I was particularly thrilled to be part of the community of founders and angel investors that Alexander is connected with, and the networking opportunities that came with it were immensely valuable to us.
Alex Vorobey, cohort #1
Lots of insights about the pitch. Interesting founders and investors with different profiles, which helps to better understand the portrait of “your” investor. Roasting helped the most. Excellent value for money.
