There has never been a better time to go after a dream. To take the craziness of an idea and make it work. You know. That’s why you’re here. Because the numbers work, the initiative work, the funding seems possible, and working hard might just pay off. Whether it’s hope, frustrations, generational imperative or a combination thereof, India is neck deep in dreams trying to be ventures.

And that decision often changes expectations, and lives. So here are the two prime methods of funding your venture:
Unless you’re very lucky, this is how your startup story will begin. The time you’ll look back on while reminiscing about that single room where it all began. Where the buck will stop at you and your dream will be in your hands. So, what’s the problem. Your money can only last so long and take you so far. The wall is coming. It’s simply a matter of getting as far as you can in the meantime.
Angel investors, venture capitalist, banking channels. These have become commonplace in the startup lexicon. They are where every budding entrepreneur wants to get to. The holy grail that’ll take your venture to the promised land and make you a serious player. It will. But at the cost of control, and TOT on decision making. Not to mention fixed interest flow in the case of debt funding. But, if you want to play with the big boys, this is where you want to be.
