Course Description

Ever wondered how you can turn a great idea into a successful company without any initial funds?

In this episode of “…Basically,” GLOBIS Insights editor W. Tanner Kirk introduces venture capital, the backbone of startup success stories like Facebook and Netflix.

We dive into the stages of venture capital funding: pre-seed, seed, and early stage. We look at how each stage supports the growth of a startup, from a simple pitch deck to a product in the market, as well as exploring the risks and rewards of venture capital.
