Technically Speaking: Bootstrapping your business

Bootstrapping forces founders to answer the hard questions early: What matters, what sells and what can wait?

In this session, MaRS brings together startup leaders for a candid conversation on how to build, grow and make smart decisions. Founders who bootstrapped their startups will share their insights on managing cash flow, prioritizing what matters, winning customers and staying resilient when there is no safety net.

Expect practical advice and strategies you can apply right away.

We’ll cover:

• Making decisions with limited time, capital and resources
• Building traction without a big budget
• Knowing when to stay lean and when to invest
• Navigating the trade-offs of bootstrapping versus raising capital
