Support at every step

I work with a handful of pre-seed and seed founders at a time as their fundraising backbone: materials, outreach strategies, investor lists and more

Everything I do is based on what I've seen work (and fail) across 1000+ pitches, hundreds of 1-on-1 investment meetings and dozens of VC deals.

Investor lists & outreach systems

Targeted investor lists, CRM to track them, all the messages you need

Process management

A timeline and cadence that keep the round moving all the way to close.

Round design & strategy

How much to raise, at what valuation, from whom, and when.

Company prep

Analysing your company from a VC lens, finding all gaps, and fixing them before the round

Materials building

Deck, model, data room. One story, told the way that gets investors excited

FUNDABILITY AUDIT

Where every engagement starts

Before we build anything, we find out if you're ready to build it. In a 120-minute deep dive, we'll go through a structured framework covering 70+ evaluation criteria. From your team and market to your business model, traction, and round design. You'll see the red flags that make VCs pass, what to fix, and whether now is even the right time to raise.

Book it as a one-off, or use it as step one of working together.

After the Audit:

I become your fundraising backbone

If the Audit shows you're ready and we're a fit, we go into the full process together. I join your team as your fundraising backbone: we prioritize what the Audit surfaced, structure the round, build every document, prepare your investor list, and run the raise side by side until you close.

Why me?

Five years on the investment side at one of Southeast Europe's leading VC funds. 1,000+ pitches heard, dozens of deals worked hands-on. Before that, I led fundraising from inside startups, so I know both how investors decide and how it feels to be the one raising.
