# Event Details - **Event Name**: Navigating the Fundraising Landscape: An Inside Look at VC Decision Making - **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 22 May, 2026 at 06:15 pm – Fri, 22 May, 2026 at 09:30 pm (+02:00) - **Event Description**: We’re sitting down with Javier López from GoHub Ventures to talk about the side of venture capital that usually stays behind closed doorsAbout this EventWe’ve all seen the "I’m happy to announce" posts on LinkedIn, but nobody ever talks about the three months of silence, the confusing feedback, or the sudden "no" that comes after four great meetings. Fundraising in Spain - and trying to scale that into Europe - is its own beast. It’s not just about having a great deck; it’s about knowing how the game is played when you aren't in the room.We’re sitting down with Javier López from GoHub Ventures to talk about the side of venture capital that usually stays behind closed doors. This isn't a presentation or a list of "top 10 tips." It’s an honest conversation about how Javier and the GoHub team actually make decisions, and why the European market can feel so different depending on where you're pitching.What we’re actually talking about:Inside the Fund: What happens at GoHub after a founder leaves the room? We’re looking at the internal logic that drives an investment - the stuff that rarely makes it into the feedback email.The Reality Check: What’s working right now in 2026? We’ll look at real examples of what founders are doing right - and the common mistakes that are killing deals before they even start.Filtering the Noise: How to tell which investors are serious and which ones are just "building a relationship" while wasting your time.Why bother coming?Because fundraising is a massive time-sink, and the "standard" advice usually doesn't work once you’re actually in the hot seat. Javier has a unique perspective on the EU landscape, and he’s coming to Startup Grind Valencia to give us the unfiltered version of how things are moving right now.Just a straightforward chat about the money, the market, and the mistakes you can avoid. Bring your actual questions - the ones you’d ask over a beer, not a pitch meeting.Agenda🕑: 06:15 PMDoors open🕑: 06:45 PMStartup Grind and GoHub Ventures introduction🕑: 07:00 PMFireside chat with Javier🕑: 07:45 PMNetworking - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/val%C3%A8ncia/navigating-the-fundraising-landscape-an-inside-look-at-vc-decision-making/100001986912630163 - **Event Categories**: Business, Meetups - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: EUR ## Event venue details - **city**: València - **state**: VC - **country**: Spain - **location**: GoHub Ventures - **lat**: 39.4807092 - **long**: -0.3625311000000001 - **full address**: GoHub Ventures, 10 Carrer d'Alvaro de Bazan, València, Spain ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Navigating the Fundraising Landscape: An Inside Look at VC Decision Making - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/762b83a7ddffe3204d25286bb7bfcf22a200db9f30cdbdf1ba79cf5f45cf869f-rimg-w1200-h675-dcf2f2f2-gmir.jpg?v=1775913602 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Navigating the Fundraising Landscape: An Inside Look at VC Decision Making being held? - **A:** Navigating the Fundraising Landscape: An Inside Look at VC Decision Making takes place on Fri, 22 May, 2026 at 06:15 pm to Fri, 22 May, 2026 at 09:30 pm at GoHub Ventures, 10 Carrer d'Alvaro de Bazan, València, Spain. - **Q**: Who is organizing Navigating the Fundraising Landscape: An Inside Look at VC Decision Making? - **A:** Navigating the Fundraising Landscape: An Inside Look at VC Decision Making is organized by Startup Grind Valencia. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
