We often start these events by warning attendees that they won’t be able to unsee what they’ re about to see. Many leave these events with a whole new perspective on not only what is possible\, but why limiting exposure the traditional v enture business model is beneficial for founders\, employees and the cul tures and values they’re hoping to embody with their businesses. \;\n \;\nRather than write another blog post or clever FAQ\, we wanted to bring that same in-person experience to those considering investment fr om Indie.vc. \;\n \;\nOver the next 2 months\, we’ll be embarking on a tour of most major metros in the US (we tried picking towns that we re a short-ish road trip away from just about anywhere). Our goal with t hese info sessions is to share our experiences and motives directly with the Indie-curious. They are open to founders interested in taking inves tment from Indie.vc and Angels/Funds interested in funding companies the way we do.
