  • 1 hour
  • Mobile eTicket

Less than 1% of businesses that are considered by venture capital investors actually end up getting funded. Of course, this does not imply that the rest of these businesses are not worthy ventures, but it does beg the question: why are these businesses not securing venture capital? The answer may lie with venture capital investors themselves, and the strategies they’re utilizing to reach their own goals. Join us for an insightful session with Ben Narasin, Founder and General Partner at Tenacity Venture Capital, to gain a deeper understanding of the way venture capital investors make decisions.

Key Takeaways:

    • How to determine if it is the right time to seek out VC investment
    • How to identify the right VC investor for you and your business
    • The factors VC investors look at when evaluating prospective companies
