So, the first section of this book provides a behind-the-scenes look at how VC firms work, and more importantly how they think. You'll get first-hand insight into what you can do to improve your chances and what to avoid that can doom your hopes. The second section of the book will help you ""run."" It covers almost every segment of start-up operations, from product development to financing to staffing to sales and marketing. Gerry Langeler's 30 years as a successful venture capitalist and entrepreneur who raised money from top VC firms, provides the secrets to help you achieve your dreams.

In Venture Capital Handbook: Revised and Updated Edition, leading venture capitalist David Gladstone and Laura Gladstone walk you step-by-step through the entire VC funding process, showing exactly how to get funded fast -- without the trauma. This end-to-end update of the classic VC guide covers the latest techniques, tax rules -- and, above all, marketplace realities.

The vast majority of businesses do not scale-up to their potential, despite the keen desire of the Entrepreneur to do so. Lack of Finance is one of the primary reasons for this. Providers of capital often do not find sufficient prospects which are ready to receive funding due to inadequate preparation and presentation by Entrepreneurs. The understanding of Venture Capital (VC) and how to go about receiving it is often incomplete, and sources of information are limited. The publications of “Start-Up to Scale-Up” are intended to partially bridge these gaps. This book provides information to the Entrepreneur on VC, practical tips on how to prepare to receive VC funding, review of the investment process, and an understanding of what the Venture Capitalist looks for when evaluating an investment. Keeping in mind the needs and constraints of the Entrepreneur the book is designed to be easy to read & understand. It seeks to equip the Entrepreneur with suggestions & formats for interaction with VC. Jargon has been minimized, accompanied with a free-flowing style of writing. The individual chapters (& overall publication) are short. The learnings should be at the back of the minds of Entrepreneurs when they interact with VC in future.
