Want to read more about the HERO? https://t.co/xpadXavkKa

[D2 Fund @D2Fund]

Most VC backed startups don’t become venture scale ($1B+).

Most Founder equity value is destroyed by endless raises in pursuit of becoming venture scale.

Most startups that could have become solid, smaller companies die along the way.

Here’s how we’re trying to fix that 🧵

[D2 Fund @D2Fund]

We believe the HERO gives founders greater optionality when it comes to growing their companies.

It gives you access to the capital you need in order to figure out what your business is going to be vs setting you down a definitive path of growth/death.
