SXSW 2023
Raising $1 Billion as an Underrepresented Founder
Description:
Fundraising looks different for underrepresented founders - everything from the pitch to the term sheet. Many underrepresented founders are not aware of the bias they experience and how to navigate investor relationships and conversations. In the other side, there are key characteristics underrepresented founders should be looking for in investors when building partnerships.
In this panel, underrepresented founders of unicorns will share what they have learned during their fundraising journeys and actionable feedback to help founders transform their conversations with investors. They’ll also share what to look out for in potential investors other than capital.
