Venture backed startups get all of the attention. Let us promote your non-dilutive funding stories.

Not every business is a good fit for venture capital.

Less than 1% of all new businesses take investment from VCs. And of that 1%, less than .1% drive the bulk of returns for the category.

Yet, most founders believe this is the default way to build a startup.

So we're building out directory of startups StoryLines to showcase/promote founders who prefer ownership & control > blitzscale + dilution.

If you're bootstrapped or raised some non-dilutive capital, list your start-up below in the following format:

  • Website
  • Funding types
  • Twitter Handle

E.g.

on December 14, 2020

    Non-dilutive funding deserves more attention because financing should ultimately match the company's stage, economics, and objectives. Grants, revenue-based financing, and other non-dilutive options can help founders preserve ownership while validating and growing the business. At the same time, venture capital can be the right choice when a company needs significant upfront capital to pursue a large market quickly. The important decision is choosing the capital structure that supports the business rather than treating fundraising as the goal itself.
