Description

In this episode, we sit down with Amy Neale, venture investor and champion of founders, to demystify the world of venture capital. Amy shares why she loves working with entrepreneurs so much and her own journey which led her to working in the investing and start up ecosystem. We talk about what makes a truly exceptional founder, the common mistakes to avoid when pitching, and how VC funds really work - including why they aren’t the right fit for every business. Amy also shares practical tips on raising capital, choosing the right investors, and crafting a powerful pitch deck. We explore the gender gap in funding, the need for more women in investing, and why now is such an exciting time to be building and investing in Ireland, especially with the rise of AI.
