Frequently asked

Q1

Do I need a Texas investor to raise in Texas?

No. Texas funds invest across the US, and most US seed funds invest in Texas. Of the 163 funds based here, 113 have actually backed a local company, which is the column this table is sorted by. Headquarters tells you where the partners sit, not where they write cheques.

Q2

How many investors do founders contact to get meetings?

Founders in our Raise Benchmarks reached 45 to 900 investors per round. Besample closed $1.5M from 24 investors after 55 first meetings. A wide, well-targeted list beats ten warm names.

Q3

How do I get a warm intro to a Texas fund?

Fundraisly's Warm Intro maps your team's LinkedIn connections against every investor in this database and shows which of these funds and angels a colleague can introduce you to.
