Embarking on the journey of securing investors is a pivotal moment for many startup founders, which entails dilemmas and strategic decisions to be made. The dance between founders and investors often unfolds as an interaction with both opportunities and pitfalls.

So how do you create a successful investment strategy and set the right valuation for your startup? How do you avoid the downsides of creating and dividing your cap table?

At this edition of IDA Startup Nights, Andreas Aabo, Founder & CEO of Healper and Jesper Winther Andersen, CEO & Founder of EarFab will share their experience with investors – both the good and the bad.

Both founders are experienced in securing funding from both Danish and international investors. In their presentations they will highlight how to prepare for your first investment round and avoiding being weakened as founder as well as revealing what investors expect and how you negotiate the best terms.
