Founders raising cash today:

Fundraising is to prove/disprove a certain set of hypotheses before next round.

It is not to solve capital supply problems for your capital providers.

Raise what you need, not what is on offer.

It will distort execution more than you think.

If your calendar is just a block of colored squares and you’re constantly pulled out of your flow, then this one is for you.

[Pierre Touzeau @PierreTouzeau]

Back-to-back meetings shouldn't be the norm. They drain us of our energy, and they make us less productive.
At Claap, we have a different vision for the future of working.
Stay tuned to see exactly what that is 👀
