Well, it turns out they actually screen "funders" , you have to already have a track record with funding startups before you can contribute..that right there may be the death of GrowVC.
I think it would make more sense to allow any random person with money to invest, and then work on how much power/say they have in the actual running of the startup
- sushi 17y agoYeah. This seems more like angel funding than VC funding. I'd say that money is relatively easier to arrange but finding someone who can mentor you along the way is way more difficult. It's even better if you find such mentor who is also willing to invest and give time to the idea. By the way, I find this site is pretty good http://www.kickstarter.com/ http://www.kickstarter.com/ BTW I am not related to this site in any way.
