Thank you for sharing your thoughts. What you're saying definitely makes sense. However, the question is whether one should prefer or avoid such, considering my assumptions on relevant pros and cons (in other words, it's a question about fundraising process optimization).
- staticautomatic 7y agoOk, but optimizing for what?
- ablekh 7y agoFor fundraising time and effort.
- staticautomatic 7y agoI will venture a guess that you'd do better pitching people with domain experience, particularly if their fund targets your domain. I have never pitched a hard science startup but I believe it's generally true that people prefer to invest in things they know and understand. It has certainly been true of my fundraising efforts in niche markets.
- ablekh 7y agoI very much appreciate your advice as well as being first to provide feedback. Pretty much the same rationale was my original thought as well, but I want to hear a variety of opinions. Let's see what other people might think and/or argue about this aspect.
