🚀 The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly: How Three Founders Raised Money Their Own Way
Thursday, August 27th | 12:30pm - 2:00pm
Exponential Impact HQ | Colorado Springs, CO
Most fundraising panels hand you the polished version. This one goes the other way. Three Colorado founders who each built real companies without running the standard venture playbook are going to walk you through the good, the bad, and the ugly of how they actually raised money. Owen Hill of Kleercard took meeting after meeting with VCs and walked away to build on angel funding. Wes Hill of Mente Medical pieced together grants and a regional fund to stay in control of his path. Allison Fitzpatrick of Actuate IOT let customers and partners bankroll the growth. Through live take-it-or-leave-it term sheet challenges, rapid-fire hot takes, and real war stories pulled from a jar, you’ll watch three smart people reach three completely different answers to the same question: whose money do I take, and what does it cost me? Bring your own fundraising dilemma. We’ll solve a few of them live.
Who Is This Session For
Colorado founders, startups and innovators looking to learn more about the different avenues for funding with real life perspective.
