Hardtech Peer Group: Applied Financial Modeling

This session, we’re hosting an interactive roundtable for the Hardtech Investment Peer Group, focused on building strong financial foundations for HardTech ventures.

The February 26th session will center on financial literacy for founders, with a practical focus on defining milestones and understanding the funding required to reach them. This 1.5-hour session is designed as a collaborative, hands-on discussion where founders actively work through real scenarios with peers and advisors.

Over the session, we’ll explore how to think about capital needs for Hardtech companies, how to align technical and commercial milestones with fundraising strategy. Founders will participate in a short presentation, followed by a workshop using a simple spreadsheet to map milestones and funding requirements, and a peer-to-peer discussion to pressure-test assumptions and approaches.
