📊 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

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

Interview with @EdLudlow and @CarolineHydeTV

The best deal that I’ve been sent recently is from a founder who I passed on. Now you think I’m going to say that we stayed in touch or I was helpful in some way. But nope, not that. He just thought that I was quick to say no and would treat his founder friend the same way (although I said yes this time!)

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 🚀

📝Term sheets aren't sexy but mastering key points & negotiation is key. No better experts to join than Jim Fulton at @CooleyLLP, Sean Park at @CitizensBank & @ShriBhashyam at @sydecario.
Thanks to @theron at @CitizensBank for hosting & including @jefielding in the discussion.

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

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!
