The 6:45 AM call that informed us of our anticipated funding (which was due that day) wouldn’t be coming through. It was a gut-punch, leaving me with a heavy heart like an elephant perched upon my chest.

You also want to be sure that you want to accept investment.

Startups must grow fast. For that, they must scale and enter new markets. And according to McKinsey & Company, for 61% of scale-ups, geographic expansion is indeed the top priority. But it’s hard. The new market might be too expensive, too alien, or there’s simply no demand.
