OM DENNE EPISODE
In this episode of LaunchBase, I sit down with Kiran Mehta, a former VC turned startup advisor, to break down the biggest mistakes founders make when raising capital. We cover:
✅ Why B2B SaaS is the safer bet for UK VCs
✅ What investors really want to see at pre-seed, seed, and Series A
✅ The funding challenges founders are facing today—and how to navigate them
✅ The real tipping point for scaling a SaaS startup
✅ Common founder mistakes (and how great founders set themselves apart)
Kiran also shares insights on his transition from VC to working directly with founders, why some startups struggle to raise pre-seed funding, and the importance of hiring well, proving commercial traction early, and knowing when to say no to bad deals.
