Check the agenda and audience, and join if it feels relevant to you....AgendaFounders and investors on what a raise actually takes.Raising money looks like a pitch problem and usually turns out to be a timing, traction, and trust problem. Most of what decides a round happens before and after the actual meeting: whether the timing is right, whether the traction backs the story, and whether the people across the table believe you'll do what you say. This panel is about that version of fundraising.We're bringing active investors together with founders who've raised to talk openly about how rounds actually come together. What investors are really weighing once the deck is closed. How founders who've been through it read a rejection, a slow no, or a term sheet that looks better than it is. Where the leverage sits, and where founders quietly give it away.We'll also get into what's changing right now: how the funding landscape looks different across sectors and stages, what's getting funded, and how founders are adjusting how much they raise, when, and from whom. The conversation stays close to what investors and founders in Bengaluru are seeing for themselves.Whether you're heading into your first raise or sizing up the next one, come for an honest, practical conversation about what it takes to raise money and build relationships that outlast a single round. Bring the questions you can't ask in a pitch meeting.Key detailsVenue: Draper Startup House Koramangala, Terrace, Startup Lane, No.384, 1st A Main Rd, 7th Block, Koramangala, Bengaluru, Karnataka 560095.Date & Time: July 18th, Saturday. 6 pm to 8 pm.For any queries, you can reach out to Jatin Chaudhary, Co-Founder, eChai Ventures at jatin@eChai.Ventures....eChai Ventures - Your Startup’s Global Neighborhood.Startups grow faster when founders are plugged into the right conversations.
