We often hear the same question: "Why wouldn’t we just build out our own space instead of joining a shared lab like Labshares?"
It’s a fair question—building out your own lab might seem like the natural choice for many startups. However, it comes with significant challenges: high upfront costs, long construction timelines, navigating complex permitting processes, and ongoing overhead expenses.
But don’t just take our word for it—hear directly from some of our members about why they chose Labshares over building out their own lab.

US Investors: From Early Stage To Series A
Understanding the progression from early-stage funding to Series A is crucial for startup success. Here’s what you need to know:
1) Seed Funding: Startups are raising significantly more in seed rounds, often exceeding $2-3M, to extend runway and reach breakeven before Series A.
2) Series A Crunch: With more startups raising seed rounds, the competition for Series A funding has intensified, making it harder to secure investment without strong traction.
3) Investor Criteria: To attract Series A investors, you need proven product-market fit, scalable marketing channels, and impressive growth metrics.
4) Network & Relationships: The best way to secure funding is through warm introductions and building strong relationships with investors early on.
