Acerca de esta escucha
Venture Adventure captures startup fundraising advice, tips, and recommendations of more than 50 top global investors. Collectively, these venture capitalists represent the who's who of this domain worldwide, across a wide range of sectors, geographies, and company stages. They have seen it all and know exactly what it takes to effectively raise capital against the backdrop of very dynamic and competitive global markets. After all, these VCs are betting with their own firms' capital on the right entrepreneurs, companies, technologies, and trends in the order of hundreds of billions of dollars of assets under management.
Venture Adventure provides a practical guide for every startup founder and founding team on how best to navigate the vast and complex world of venture capital. It covers everything from determining the right fundraising strategy, to optimizing the positioning and narrative for your company, approaching and engaging investors, effectively pitching and negotiating, selecting the right investors, building and managing boards, and much more.
If you're looking to scale your business to the next level, you can't afford not to put your best foot forward and play the VC game intelligently and confidently. The stakes couldn't be any higher, so you must get it right. Venture Adventure will help you do precisely just that.
Some of the topics covered include:
• Weighing the pros and cons of VCs, CVCs, strategics, and family offices
• Tricks of the trade to increase your chances of getting investors' attention fast
• Common mistakes founders make in their pitch decks and how to avoid them
• Delivering a killer pitch that presents your business in the best possible light
• Handling investors' concerns and objections like a pro
• Dos and don'ts of investor negotiations
• Selecting the right investor partners for your business
• Best practices for assembling and managing your board

How do the really exceptional CEOs get more done in less time than everyone else? What is their technique for getting their work done, while still having the time to spend pursuing hobbies and spending quality time with their friends and family? The truth is that great and lazy CEOs know a secret when it comes to time management.

Whether you're an entrepreneur, an intrapreneur, or a not-for-profit leader, there's no shortage of advice on such topics as writing a business plan, recruiting, raising capital, and branding. In fact there are so many books, articles, and websites that many startups get bogged down to the point of paralysis, or they focus on the wrong priorities and go broke before they discover their mistakes.

Being a CEO at any of the world’s largest companies is among the most challenging roles in business. Billions, and even trillions, are at stake—and the fates of tens of thousands of employees often hang in the balance. Yet, even when “can’t miss” high-achievers win the top job, very few excel. For those who shoulder the burden of being the one on whom everyone counts, a manual for excellence is sorely needed. To identify the 21st century’s best CEOs, the authors of CEO Excellence started with a pool of over 2,400 public company CEOs.
