#49: An Insider's Guide to Startup Funding

Update: 2020-08-12

Description

In this episode of the Product Leadership Podcast Tom is joined by Jonathan Hollis from Mountside Ventures.

They chat about the wide range of funding options available to startups, how Jonathan's company makes the fundraising process more efficient for both investors and startups, and the effect Covid-19 has had.

Along the way they cover:

What startups should do in preparation for taking their proposition to market.
Why the UK is a great place to invest in early-stage companies (and to be an early stage company!)
How funds have responded to the need for remote investing, and what goes on in an institutional investor's head.
How similar the process really is to the one we see on Dragons Den.
