Key facts
The inability to raise new capital is one of the top cited reasons for start-up failure. To succeed against the odds, entrepreneurs require both an understanding of different investor types and insight into the mechanics of valuation, negotiation, and scaling.

Over six weeks, you’ll gain a practical overview of the skills needed to secure venture capital. The course walks you through a business’s evolution from start-up all the way to exit strategy. Guided by expert faculty, you’ll enhance your ability to evaluate business opportunities using a framework that encapsulates people, opportunities, and context.
