3 simple fundraising rules: Focus on the right investors. Don’t pitch too early. Build relationships before you need the money.
In 20 minutes, the Finnish PM said what the UN has failed to say in 20 years - so clearly that nobody could object, so honestly that everybody had to listen.
I have listened to this a few times now and moved past the content of the speech. I am not sure why this one stands out to me - trust me, I have listened to thousands of leaders, and this one has something in it that makes me eager to learn this technique. Any speechwriters/…

Fundraising is not about chasing money. It’s about attracting the right partners who believe in your vision.
The difference between founders who raise capital and those who don’t? Relentless follow-up. Most give up too soon. Winners don’t.
The CEO role is the only job that changes faster than the company itself

3 things that kill investor interest fast: Overcomplicated slides. No clear market focus. Talking too much, listening too little.
What’s more valuable for an early-stage founder: 1 strong investor 10 supportive mentors Curious what you think
I once saw a founder raise capital without a product. All he had was a clear problem, a simple story, and strong belief. Sometimes vision alone is enough to open doors.

One of our clients thought investors cared most about numbers. Turns out, the investor said: “I’m backing YOU, not just the metrics.” Lesson: People invest in people first.
Reality check for first-time founders: VCs don't fund your messy MVP. They fund polished demos. While you're "learning fast" with your broken product, funded founders are building moats. The "ship messy" advice comes from people who already have money. You don't. Act…
Fundraising tip for early-stage founders: Investors don’t just invest in your product, they invest in your clarity of vision. If you can’t explain your startup in 30 seconds, you’re not ready to pitch.

Open-sourcing world models is becoming the new moat in robotics - the real competitive advantage shifts to execution speed and data quality
Last week, I spoke with a first-time founder who was struggling to connect with the right investors. After applying a simple relationship-first approach, he booked 3 calls in just one week. Lesson? Investors invest in people, not just products.
