on an average how long do YC companies take to raise the next round (could be series A, or another larger angel round) of funding after the YC funding?

- webwright 18y agoI don't think anyone has done this math... PG said to be prepared for 6-9 months for Series A. Angel seems to be 1-3 months and Series A seems to be closer to 4-6 for YC companies. I talk to plenty of non-YC founders who raise money for 6-12 months. Blech. I think only 20ish of the 80 "graduating" companies have gotten Series A, and most of the rest (who are alive) got angel.
- pg 18y agoAverage, maybe 2-3 months from Demo Day. But the range is wide, from a few days for a small angel deal to many months for a series A.
