Helpful insight from @cartainc's @PeterJ_Walker on summer fundraising. Conventional wisdom is that summer is toughest so this is eye-opening. Just remember this reflects when deals close. Term sheets are typically issued 4-6 weeks prior to closing!

Founders - you can raise VC rounds in the summer.
Across most years, the worst month for signed venture deals is actually January. July isn't so great either - but June and August are usually pretty decent!
Deals are not always begun and signed in the same month, obviously

Two ways for an AI company to protect itself from competition: (a) depend not just on AI but also deep domain knowledge about a particular field, (b) have a very close relationship with the end users.
