Digital+Health startups based in the US raised an extraordinary $29.1B in 2021, with funding doubling from 2020 levels across seed to later stage investments. Are you a first-time founder looking to navigate the complexities of your first major fund raise or a seasoned entrepreneur hoping to better understand the breadth of resources available to help scale your business?

Join this zoom event to hear first-hand perspectives on raising venture capital as an early-stage startup. Our focus will be on ventures advancing health, caregiving, fitness, and bio-innovation with digital and computing technologies, but the content will be applicable to innovators across sectors. Join us to strengthen your fund-raising strategy and gain real world, real time, founder insights on when to raise, how to engage VCs, what VCs value, the vital role of your story, what worked, what our panelists would do differently, and how to achieve impact and fulfillment.

The event kicks off with a panel of founders who are currently raising or have recently raised from $4M to $15M in Seed and Series A funding. An informal VC led session on Fund Raising & Term Sheets follows the panel. Digital+Health resource and VMS info rooms will also be open.

Regardless of where you are in your entrepreneurial journey, please register and join us. All are welcome. Pre-registration is required.
