Raising money has always been a problem for inventors, whether they need funds for a patent, for a prototype, or for production. You require more money than ever to cover the high costs of production and to get into the market with as much momentum as possible.

Most venture capitalists and angel investors receive dozens of pitches every day and simply don't have time to meet with everyone.

To make it more difficult, it's not uncommon for first-time entrepreneurs to need to speak with 50 plus investors before closing a round of funding. So as an entrepreneur, you're going to need to identify dozens of people who could potentially be interested in your company.

What is a Startup Company?

A startup company or startup is a business in the form of a company, a partnership or temporary organization designed to search for a repeatable and scalable business model. These companies, generally newly created, are in a phase of development and research for markets.

The term became popular internationally during the dot-com bubble, when a significant number of dot-com companies were founded.

A critical task in setting up a business is to conduct research to validate, assess and develop the ideas or business concepts in addition to opportunities to establish further and more profound understanding on the ideas or business concepts as well as their commercial potential

What is An Angel Investor?
