Are You Ready for Equity Funding?

Equity Funding comes in many shapes and forms and has the potential to help you accelerate the scaling of your start-up. However, it remains the riskiest form of funding if not pursued with adequate care (for more information on the risks and challenges of Equity Funding, refer to our primer here).

Equity Funding typically involves cash infusion from VCs or PEs, but these funds usually like to invest in companies that fulfil certain parameters.
