51 - Beginner's Guide To Startups Part 2: Investor Side Of The Table, with Michael Gibson

We continue our Beginner’s guide to startups with a discussion that continues on the basics of formatting an idea and preparing a business plan. Michael Gibson from 1517 Fund joins me to speak about the investor side of the story. We cover the types of investors that can be found out there, what to look for and how to approach an investor, what a startup accelerator can help you with and what to consider when applying for one. Also we cover what investors think about when they consider which startup to support and what they fear the most.
