VC Seed Funding Programs
Ever since our experiences trying to find seed-funding a couple of years ago I've been following the VC scene more closely and have now noticed a couple of VCs putting out seed funding programs through convertible loans.
- Charles River - QuickStart Seed Funding Program. Charles River loan up to $250.000. I wrote a brief email to CR and they seem to be focussing on incorporation in the US and also for the core team to be there too.
- Holtzbrinck Ventures - Fast Forward. Holzbrinck, situated in Munich, Germany, provide up to €150.000 through a loan. Not sure if they fund non-German ideas.
Does anyone have experience or comments on this sort of funding? From the perspective of what we experienced and thinking about routes to take, this does look interesting.
