View investment in senior care ventures as long-term, says Zerodha’s Nithin Kamath #ZerodhaCEO said that those investing in senior care ventures need to view it as a journey of 15-20 years rather than the traditional startup cycles of 7-10 years.

Endeavor has gone from the best kept secret to incubating the fund with the highest returns…. Not bad for a 12 year old fund (leveraging a 27 year old organization). 🚀🎉 Earlier this week Kauffman Fellows published its Kauffman Fund Returners Index, and to our surprise… Endeavor Catalyst is #1!!! 🥇 The storyline goes as follows: We started as a non-profit, added a fund to support our mission, and now the fund leads in returns based on the thesis of the non-profit. If this is not “doing well by doing good”, then what else is… Measuring returns as apples to apples 🍎 is tough, since traditional metrics like net MOIC (net-realized multiples of investment capital) are private, so Kauffman Fellows created a proxy to evaluate VC success: the number of startups reaching $1B+ valuations, exits, and their corresponding exit values. 📊 As Allen Taylor, Managing Partner of Endeavor Catalyst, stated, “We believe venture capital is truly going global and great founders can be found in markets you might not expect. These non-traditional markets are leading the way, proving incredible things are happening “elsewhere”. To make us even prouder we get to share the Venture Success podium with so many of our venture-friends Koichiro Nakamura (Sozo Ventures), Yinglan Tan (Insignia Ventures Partners), Justin Fishner-Wolfson (137 Ventures), Fredrik Cassel (Creandum), Mamoon Hamid (Kleiner Perkins), Santi Subotovsky (Emergence Capital), Eric Perez-Grovas (Wollef), Alexandre Lazarow (Fluent Ventures), and Srini Ananth (Intel Capital), among others. Huge congrats to our Endeavor colleagues worldwide 🌍, who select the best entrepreneurs in their respective markets and to the Endeavor Catalyst team for making this dream come true. 👏

Take VC money and dilute yourself? Don't take the money and eat ramen noodles? Wait, I like Ramen regardless. There are lots of debates on whether to go the VC route and give up equity and control or try to bootstrap your business yourself. I don't think there's right or wrong way per se. Just need to figure out what works for you. Either way you're giving up something. Some good data by Peter Walker and the Carta team on where your dilution will come from. Just remember - 100% of nothing is still nothing but be smart about what you're giving up. #startups #equity #dilution
For founders - how does your ownership in your startup change over time? Dilution can happen in all sorts of ways. Just this morning I put together a lot of different data from US Carta startups (45,000 and counting) on how these slices of equity pie get dolled out over time. Main dilution sources include: • Adding co-founders • Taking on advisors • Hiring early employees • Selling equity to investors Deck below digs into each source of dilution, provides some current market benchmarks for how startup founders are building today, and gets into the real details. We cover: • SAFEs and convertible notes before price equity (friends & family, angel, pre-seed, and "seed on SAFEs") • Priced round dynamics • Employee option pool size impact • Convertible instruments (either SAFEs or Notes) signed in-between priced rounds • Examples of ownership at IPO If you're taking away just two things from all these numbers - let them be: 1. There is no 𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝘄𝗮𝘆 to build a venture-backed company. Comparison is, as always, the thief of joy. 2. Don't let dilution catch you off guard! Model those SAFEs, project out your ideas about future fundraising, give this some real thought so you can build the company you want with the upside you deserve. Fundraising models available for free in Carta Launch for all early fundraising founders 🙏 Give me a shout in the comments if you'd like a link to the high-res deck for yourself! #cartadata #startups #dilution #founders #fundraising -------------------- Pasture-raised, antibiotic-free, non-GMO startup data out every Thursday in our Data Minute newsletter.

🚀 𝗪𝗲'𝗿𝗲 𝗲𝘅𝗰𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗲 𝗘𝗾𝘂𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗥𝗼𝗹𝗹-𝗨𝗽 𝘃𝗲𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗳𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀! FB Ventures is proud to launch 𝗔𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗮’𝘀 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗹-𝘂𝗽 𝘃𝗲𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗹𝗲, powered by FundBase Group, built to simplify fundraising and empower founders to take control. Venture is driving success globally, and now it’s time for Australia and NZ founders to lead with a vehicle made just for them. 🎉 Proud to see our co-founder Anna Nedbaylova, announcing this milestone with Bronwen Clune in the Reporter's Notebook: "FB Ventures has launched what it claims is Australia’s first roll-up vehicle platform 𝗱𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗲𝗱 𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗳𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝗶𝗻𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘀, aiming to 𝘀𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗳𝘆 𝗰𝗮𝗽𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗿𝗮𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 and cap table management for startups.” This platform lets founders 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝘀𝗺𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗿 𝗶𝗻𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘀 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝗮 𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗹𝗲 𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗰𝗮𝗽 𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 — avoiding the 50-shareholder cap while keeping costs down. “Roll-up vehicles are 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗨𝗦. It’s almost expected that capital will be raised via an appropriate vehicle,” Anna explains. “Until now, offering a 𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗹-𝘂𝗽 𝘃𝗲𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗹𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗔𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗮 has been prohibitively 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗶𝘃𝗲.” Unlike existing syndicate-focused platforms like 𝗔𝘂𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗲 𝗔𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗹𝘀, Nedbaylova says FB Ventures puts control in founders' hands. With 𝟯𝟬 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗽𝘀 already using the platform, we’re putting control back in founders’ hands and 𝗲𝗺𝗽𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝘅𝘁 𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 of ANZ innovators. The platform also aims to help investors 𝗯𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗸 their startup investments. 💡Catch the full story in the Capital Brief Sweat Equity Newsletter: https://lnkd.in/gVTw3qEK Richard Mulligan Hannah Mercado Rosana Petersen #FBVentures #AustralianStartups #CapitalRaising #VentureCapital #CapitalBrief
