Hello everyone, I'm Arwa Albeely Founder and CEO of Sayed Nafsak Freelancing Platform, in which we connect freelancers with their clients directly and secure the deals,
My questions for the experts are:
1- how to open an investment round and what're the procedure and requirements.
2- how to valuate the business in early stages and how to measure exactly how much the business needs in terms of money to grow.
3- how to decide which type of investment suits your start-up better ( equity, Grants, loan ... etc)
4- last but not least recommend places, platforms, events to find the network of investors with an innovative mindset and incubation programmes that offers a financial support in the area and in my case whom are interested in creating job opportunities, youth and women led start-ups
Thank you, Looking forward to get the best possible knowledge and benefits from this valuable event
