Founders Clinic

Business


In this season of Founders Clinic, Nana and Andy are talking to Venture Capital firms and Angel Investors, to demystify the funding landscape and draw parallels between the journey of founders and investors. For this episode we sat down with Patrick Newton (https://www.linkedin.com/in/patrick-newton-43b9682b/?originalSubdomain=uk) , the Founding Partner at Form Ventures (https://formventures.vc/) . We get to understand how they raised their first £1M, how many meetings it took to get there, comparisons between venture in the UK & US, and how they position themselves to invest in regulated spaces.  This podcast is sponsored by Balsamiq (https://balsamiq.com/) , the quick and easy wireframing tool.
