📊 Founders who are raising: know your numbers. Don’t just aim for the highest valuation—raise what you need, leave room to grow, and avoid a down round later. Use this cheatsheet to benchmark your next round. h/t @cartainc

[Shruti Gandhi / Array VC preseed rounds @atShruti]

AI preseed rounds should be under $2M. On @BloombergTV I share more about what companies/founders looks like at this stage.

It's a dream to do what you love- serving founders- with who you love.

Today we @EniacVC are proud to announce $220m in new funds from majority mission driven LPs.

Grateful to our team, founders, LPs, #nyctech, and the community (you!) for this continued opportunity. 🙏🏾

[Hadley Harris @Hadley]

In 2010, we launched our 1st fund at $1.6M. Today excited to announce our 6th seed fund with $220M in new capital—a 137x increase 😝

Our focus stays the exact same: leading pre-product-market fit seed rounds and accelerating founders from 0 to 1 🚀

Thanks to @theron at @CitizensBank for hosting & including @jefielding in the discussion.

[nihal @nihalmehta]

A prime example of how AI can do GOOD.

So proud of my wife @reshmasaujani for innovating one of the first public sector use cases of genAI with the launch of paidleave dot ai.

Congrats to @OpenAI @sama @eliast @craignewmark and everyone involved! 🤖

If it seems hard in SaaS, just remember if you can get to $20m-$25m ARR, growing at even a modest clip, and your burn is low ... someone will buy you

Just don't raise at a crazy valuation, that's all

[Hustle Fund 🦛🌽💛 @HustleFundVC]

It’s true. @MeggieRamirez is the best VC banking partner, ever. You’d be lucky to work with her and Team @CitizensBank Private Bank. Go find them, emerging VCs!
