Summary
In this episode, Corinna Bellizzi connects with fellow Bronco and MBA Candidate from Santa Clara University, Amit Jamuar to talk about the difficulties faced by great business leaders as they seek funding to grow their businesses. So very many great ideas stall simply because they lack the resources they need to scale. During this discussion they remained focused on the greater good, as ConexUp focuses their efforts on being the champion for founders, protecting their interests, educating them on the process of attaining VC funding and enabling their success – because every great idea deserves the funds it needs to succeed.
About Our Guest, Amit Jamuar: Amit Jamuar has a background in finance, cryptocurrency and venture capital. He founded ConexUp when he saw how few great ideas received the funding they needed to be successful in his work. ConexUp offers an alternative to the traditional VC world, providing a platform aimed at helping entrepreneurs navigate the sometimes murky waters of venture funding. Powered by machine learning, their service provides startups with the necessary tools and feedback needed to ensure successful fundraising while their team operates as a champion for the founder.
