received some personal funding

1. Incubator and accelerator- residential program, intensive camps; give a basic fee in
exchange for 7% equity; also programs without equity. Certain/many incubators are
associated with business angels and some do a transition over to business angels so
some go to incubators for angels network
University incubators MAY OR MAY NOT be more academic
Some are more particular about industry knowledge

Quite a lot of limitations… but another easier solution:


Crowdfunding- raise money direclt from public. Necessary 10-30% of funding round from
someone
Live product better
Simpler to explain to public

2. Early stage VC: pay more attention to biz model and financial info; check activity on
crunchbase

Industry players- shy away from pdt that disrupt markets

Angels/wealthy kids- check their backgd- eg. wants to see money everyday

How to choose-

Talk with them to check on office hours and etc
