Which startup funding you chase in 2024?πŸ’΅

Hey! Got a question.

We already said (in the long read on 2024 Start-Up Trends πŸ‘‰
https://www.upsilonit.com/blog/top-trends-changing-the-modern-startup-ecosystem) that 29% of startups go bust cause their scrilla runs dry.
That sad song likely won't change. With the economy limper than my grandpa's legs, investors get hella picky where they stash their paper.

Angel syndicates may spread their wings more, with high rollers mixing funds to back startups together. Lets them diversify their portfolios and split the research.

VC money is still crucial for startups, but the big fish might bite more in healthcare, green biz, and biotech - stuff people care 'bout now.

The DeFi scene growing, giving new crowdfunding ways on blockchain's rails. DeFi helps startups tap worldwide backers.
Crowdfunding sites like Kickstarter still go strong, but some projects never deliver after making bank.

We could see more micro VCs funding early hustles with smaller stacks that make a difference.

Bottom line - startups must mix all money avenues now - revenue shares, convertible notes, hybrid models. The game has changed. You best adapt if you want that cheddar for your startup!
