Money Talks
summary
Panelists lay out concrete deal shapes and expectations: project funding commonly covers $100k–$1.5M with revenue-sharing deals (about 30% of sales), while equity rounds often start near €500k and target multi-year growth; investors expect team first proofs, clear answers to “why this, why now,” measurable metrics, realistic milestones and hiring plans, and a path to 3–5x (or higher) returns over 3–5 years. Avoid vague asks, don’t rely on friends and family, and come prepared to know your numbers.
