• Raising funds: a marathon where your network is your best pair of running shoes Entrepreneurs, you know it: raising funds is a sport in its own right. Pitch decks, meetings, searching for non-dilutive financing… All of this while keeping your business running. 👉 But if there’s one thing I’ve learned over the past few weeks, it’s that your network is often your greatest asset. You can spend weeks applying to business angel networks or public funding programs. • But one key introduction can change everything: A former colleague who connects you to the right investor. A mentor who shares a strategy for navigating those early rounds of fundraising. A partner you meet at an event who turns out to be a strategic ally. • Your network is the key. Building it means attending events, giving before you receive, and always keeping a human and authentic approach. Of course, there are other essential allies: • Competitiveness clusters like Systematic Paris-Region or Aerospace Valley that guide and connect. • Bank loans, although they are often out of reach before those first sales. But the real catalyst, the one that speeds everything up? It’s often a conversation, an exchange, or an introduction. 🌟 Conclusion? Always surround yourself. Be visible, ask for advice, listen… and seize those opportunities that emerge from a single message or handshake. So, what about YOU, my network? Interested in SKYTED? Feel free to reach out!

Fundraising: Why You Don’t Have to Go It Alone Fundraising isn’t easy. Whether you’re an emerging fund manager raising for the first time or a seasoned GP launching a new strategy, it can feel like an uphill climb—full of long hours, frustrating rejections, and logistical hurdles. Too often, fundraising becomes a distraction, pulling valuable time and focus away from what truly matters: investing well and delivering value to stakeholders. This is where having the right partner—a placement agent—can change the game. A good placement agent doesn’t just connect you to potential investors. They help you refine your story, anticipate objections, and position your fund in a way that resonates. For first-time managers, this can be the difference between a stalled raise and a successful one. For established managers, it’s about efficiency, timing, and de-risking what’s often a complex process. In my experience, fundraising is as much about relationships as it is about numbers. And the right partner can not only open doors but ensure that those conversations lead to commitments. Whether you’re just starting or looking to refine your approach, remember: you don’t have to navigate this journey alone.
