Building The Deck – What The VC Investors Want
In order to attract investment capital from venture capitalists or private equity groups, it's important to understand what these entities are looking for in a deal. Generally speaking, they are looking for a substantial return on their investment, but this is not always the case with angel investors. Angels are typically more interested in access to deals, status, and staying busy than they are in earning a significant return on their investment. It's important to understand what each type of investor wants before pitching your deal, as this will help you frame your presentation in a way that's most likely to resonate with them.
