Breaking Down VC Funding with Brightland’s Aishwarya Iyer

So, you have a genius idea for a new business: but how, exactly, are you going to pay for it all? We’ve talked a lot about bootstrapping this season on Girlboss Radio, but this week, Puno dives into the world of venture capital with Aishwarya Iyer, the founder and CEO of Brightland. How you fund your business affects how you build your business - and how long you have to make it happen. Before anybody can give you any advice about what type of funding you should look into, you need to know the answers to these three questions: What are you building? How much is it going to cost? How much control do you want? Tune in for Aishwarya’s unique perspective on venture capital after a decade in the industry.
