Startup Funding Espresso -- Building Your Entrepreneur Ecosystem
Startup Boards -- Building Your Entrepreneur Ecosystem Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. I have found a number of investors want to build their entrepreneur community as part of their investment thesis.\xa0\xa0 The most common lament from a startup investor is, \u2018I invested my available funds and must wait \u2018til I see something return before investing more.\u2019 This makes it difficult to build an ecosystem as the funds are tied up for a long period of time.\xa0 One solution is the Early Exit term sheet; this gives the investor the option to take back their investment at year 3. To provide funds to more startups, you could take the gains from one startup investment to invest in other startups.\xa0 For example, in a 3X in 3 years redemption right, a $50K investment would yield $150K in 3 years.\xa0 You could divide the $150K as follows: $50K -- leave in the startup as equity or debt $50K \u2013 take from the first startup to fund a second startup\xa0 $50K -- return to investor funds This creates an evergreen fund for investing in more startups.\xa0 Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding.Let\u2019s go startup something today. ___________________________________ For more episodes from Investor Connect, please visit the site at: \xa0 Check out our other podcasts here: \xa0 For Investors check out: \xa0 For Startups check out: \xa0 For eGuides check out: \xa0 For upcoming Events, check out \xa0\xa0 For Feedback please contact info@tencapital.group\xa0\xa0\xa0 Please , share, and leave a review.
