FoodHack Lisbon “Fundraising stories – How to raise in the current environment”
Fundraising stories – How to raise in the current environment
Access to capital is more restricted, valuations are more demanding, and expectations are higher. While attention turns to AI and data centers, disciplined founders of food technology companies are raising funds based on traction, not hype.
This session at FoodHack Lisbon features entrepreneurs who have successfully raised investment, investors who focus on traditional and alternative financing methods, and what is truly necessary to raise capital in the current landscape.
Invited speakers:
Chirag Shamdasani, Climate Action Consultant @ MasterCard Foundation
Nuno Leite, Founding Partner @ SEAentia
Miguel Jordão, CBO @ Gardin, Managing Partner @ Newland Syndicate
Paulo Gaspar, Co-Founder & CEO @ BRAINR
