Currently, investors have come up with enough ways to buy interesting startups. And start-ups, in turn, found no less opportunity to present ideas to the project sponsors. In my opinion, the most interesting intersection options:
1. Informal meetings of startups (conducted by
Web2people.net and
Startapoint.ru ). 30-50 startups, several investors and other stakeholders are gathered, several project presentations are held. All this in a cozy atmosphere of a cafe. Cute and constructive.
2. Providing the already established start-up creative teams to prepare an alpha version of the project on the territory of a good consultant-intermediary who will tell you what to do, will provide the office, and invest with the investors if the project is worthwhile. There are only 2 difficulties. It is necessary for 3-6 months to settle in St. Petersburg and have a team consisting of no less than 2 people. Details
here3. Conference of bloggers, startups and their ilk. More than a three-day event, in which there are discussions, acquaintance with sponsors, competitions, blogs and projects. Passed recently for the second time in Kiev. Details
here4. The
Egenius.ru project either buys a well-developed idea from the author or takes the author to work. And the team of specialists is waiting for him here, there is no need to recruit anyone, if there is no such desire.
Who knows what other points of intersection for startups and investors exist and how effective are they?
