Every VC-Backed Startup is Now Vying for Reserves.

So much has changed in venture capital since the beginning of the year, and many founders are still unaware of it. One example is the concept of "reserves," which is critical for VCs but not usually necessary for founders to understand in The Best of Times. Because there is always more money to invest in top performers and even mid-pack performers in the Best of Times. To write second and third checks into the winners, money almost always comes from somewhere. But, in tougher times, in more stressful times in business (like now), that money for second and third checks almost vanishes.

How to pitch your cleantech start-up to investors?

The size of the impact investing market currently stands at USD 1.164 trillion in assets under management (AUM) – a significant psychological milestone for an industry still maturing and growing in sophistication. As the 2030 target to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) approaches, financial markets have seen unprecedented commitments from asset owners and managers allocating capital toward the USD 4.2 trillion funding gap required to achieve these goals. It is estimated that a mere 1.1% of all assets held by banks and institutional asset owners are needed to address this gap. Against this backdrop, understanding the extent of capital allocated to impact investing strategies provides a crucial measure as the world enters a key period of action.

In line with this, the number of business leaders willing to rethink their business model from a green perspective continues to grow! Despite its relative youth, the green technology market has attracted an increasing amount of interest. and the energy crisis and sustainability are becoming more and more popular, as the cost-of-living crisis soars, energy prices continue to rise and questions about Europe’s energy supply and carbon emissions are brought to the fore, the move to clean energy sources couldn’t be more urgent.

In this workshop we will give an understanding of important aspects for fundraising for cleantech startups with 2 guest speakers. The discussion will give an impact fund’s perspective and criteria for investments, as well as insights from a successful start-up.

This discussion dives deep into how investors look at cross-border deals and gives a guide for startups on how to utilize regional networks such as Med Angels to facilitate this kind of fundraising. Startups seeking to make it big and gain adequate funding can go as far as to connect to angel networks outside their homelands to gain international investment opportunities and cross-border co-investments to help grow and scale up their startup.
