WeWork's pitch deck that raised $355 million in Series A from Goldman Sachs, T. Rowe Price and Wellington Management in 2014. Main takeaways: ✅ Design matters: WeWork uses modern fonts, meaningful icons, and staged venue pictures. ✅ Know your numbers: Slide 10 clearly proves that having a value proposition backed by numbers is crucial to getting funding.

Did You Know about Seattle Public Schools (SPS) Funding Model?  ❗ SPS doesn’t fully fund each individual school, it has a Tier method of funding.  ❗ The weighted funding model is based on Tier assignment which ensures low-income communities receive more funding, relies on PTAs to fill in known gaps in school budgets. ❗ A weighted funding model means that as your number goes up the community comes around the school to provide critical funding to bridge that gap for that school. PTA organizations have stepped in to fill this gap. Funds are raised on a YEARLY basis. If the funding is not met that year then the school will lose it the following year. There is not a cushion to carry us year to year. We had the the opportunity to create a quality video while helping raise crucial funds for a local public school. Check out the video here (and don't forget to support your local PTA!): https://lnkd.in/gMgSSTcz If you are part of a group trying to do something good, reach out to our team.

The most efficient way to connect with investors is through an introduction from the founders. They have already done the work you're about to do and they have built relationships with investors. We encourage you to invest time and effort to find and connect with founders who recently raised money in your space. One of our bootcamp participants: "Had a great meeting with one founder today. This guy closed the round last year at more than a million. He promised to do intros to investors. In short, one meeting with the right founder brings 10 good intros. For sure, this is much more effective than bombing cold letters by email"

If you are an early-stage founder who is planning to raise money in 2024, that’s the first thing you need to do right now. Connect with 10 founders who have recently (in the past year) raised money. Ideally in the same industry as you, but not direct competitors. Connect with them, get them on a call, build relationships, and ask for 3 warm intros to their investors. 10 calls with founders will give you 30 warm investors in your pipeline, making already half of the funnel you need for your round.

Sharing for those who may be able and inspired to contribute, or willing to pass this message of support for Densho on. In their words- Densho documents the testimonies of Japanese Americans who were unjustly incarcerated during World War II before their memories are extinguished. Densho is a Japanese term meaning “to pass on to the next generation,” or to leave a legacy. The legacy they offer is an American story with ongoing relevance: during World War II, the United States government incarcerated innocent people solely because of their ancestry. Densho is a nonprofit organization started in 1996, with the initial goal of documenting oral histories from Japanese Americans who were incarcerated during World War II. This evolved into a mission to educate, preserve, collaborate and inspire action for equity.
