ABOUT THE SERVICE


There is never enough capital to go around. Raising capital is only the means for startups to succeed but capital is like fuel for a startup. It is one of the main pillars of growth.

At Varidus, we help startups with introductions to various types of fund-raising sources as follows:

  • Non-dilutive capital fund-raising (government grants, Singapore only, via service providers)
  • Dilutive capital fund raising via licensed partners

Note: We don't provide financial advice or market securities. We only provide introductions.

Government Grants are an important source of capital. Many governments including the governments of US, UK, India, Singapore offer non-dilutive grants to start-ups.
At present, we are offering our startups that are at least 30% Singaporean owned in terms of shareholding a way to raise up to $160,000 SGD in non-dilutive cash or kind grants.


KEY CONSIDERATIONS 


For dilutive capital, the fundraising strategy would involve a strategy discussion with us and then based on the discuss and considerations below, we can help align the right partner for your firm. Some sample questions/considerations are:

  • What stage of growth are you in? (Angel/FF, Seed, Growth (A/B/C/D/E), Exit?
  • What sort of value do you expect investors to add?
  • Are you flexible in jurisdiction to raise funds and can move there?
  • How much do you want to dilute against your post-money valuation?
  • Do you want to raise equity or debt or a combination?


Value proposition

The best early-stage venture capital investments appear obvious in retrospect; however, very few of them are actually obvious when you make them. - David Sze
