Why join?

Most founders in the startup ecosystem come from a technical background. However, a significant part of the business development process revolves around finance, whether it be raising the first round of investment funding or understanding how the business model works in a financial context. Most importantly, founders need to be able to understand how to scale the business and add value over time.

To do all of the above, startups and scaling enterprises require a robust financial model, which they understand, can repeat again and again and which allows them to plan with confidence and ultimately tell the story of their business to investors and other stakeholders.
