Why am I embarking on this entrepreneurial journey?
Venture Capital Funding is not equivalent to success – 95-96% of successful businesses dont raise money from VCs Things VCs look for in a startup for investing:

Fast Growing
Not a me too
Not too crowded market
An exit that is visible for the VC
You cannot build a company for an exit (exits happen).
Importance of the team.
