You arrive with assumptions. You leave with a strategy.

A full working day. Working sessions, each one building on the last. You work on whiteboards and your own computer throughout.

1

How investors make decisions at pre-seed

The signals they look for, the red flags they notice, applied immediately to your company.

2

Investment instruments and negotiation

SAFEs, convertible notes, equity rounds. How each works and how to negotiate them.

3

Valuation: Building your own method

You build your valuation from your own assumptions. You leave with a number you can defend.

4

Financial projections investors believe

Your projections built on logic an investor can follow, not numbers pulled from the air.

5

Your customized investment strategy

Everything from the day consolidated into one strategy built around your actual company.

What Founders Are Saying

Thank you for having us! It was a great experience, we learned a lot and we were able to identified our gaps and how to close them. Now we feel more confident that we are on the right track

To Global Startups, for an exceptional program, practical insights, and a fantastic Investor Readiness Bootcamp that challenged us to think bigger and sharper.

I've personally gone through one of their fundraising readiness programs, and the experience was genuinely valuable. It's not theoretical advice. It's grounded, practical, and shaped by people who have actually been on both sides of the table. If you're building and thinking about raising capital, I strongly recommend engaging with Global Startups and taking advantage of sessions like this. Small group. Real conversations. The right kind of room to be in.
