The World’s Coolest Venture Capitalist Mark Suster Spills The Beans On Raising Money

• Tweet

Mark Suster knows a few billion things about being an entrepreneur and venture capitalist. He has sold multiple companies (including a HUGE sale to Salesforce.com) and really has amazing experience on, as he says, both sides of the table.

I invited Mark to come on RISE to teach us a bit about venture capital and fundraising. Regardless of the size of your company, I think it is valuable to learn about the venture capital world (cue theme music). Someday, you might need to raise money, and who better to give us all advice than Mark?

In this interview, we discuss:

-The ins and outs of raising money.

-The basics of venture capital.

-Mistakes startups make.

-How entrepreneurship has changed since the bubble burst.

and much, much (oh SO much) more.
