In this episode, I’m thrilled to be joined by Richard Hadler, an Angel Investor, experienced executive and Co-Founder of Founders Capital, an investment community dedicated to helping founders raise investment from other founders and start up experts.

In this conversation, Rich and I explore the world of finance for founders – and understand what investors are looking for in the companies that they invest in.

🌟 Some of my favourite parts were:
✅ The financial and non-financial metrics that Rich as an Investor considers before investing;
✅ The role that Founders Capital and its community play in the companies they invest in;
✅ How Angel Investors are evaluating the potential exit strategies in the current market;
✅ Rich talking through how he evaluates the businesses and founders that he invests in;
✅ How best to evaluate a business model and potential at the pre-revenue stage.
