Decoding Startup Valuations
Valuations topic is confusing and sometimes outright stressful for founders. That’s why I invited Dan Gray, Head of insights of the Equidam platform for this episode of TheOnePoint. And not just for founders. Many investors also don’t have the perfect grip on the topic. Due to their fund strategy setup, many investors might be valuation takers and not valuation setters. And honestly, the whole practical aspect of the valuations is influenced by many factors, including supply-demand of capital from investors who may or may not be too focused on this KPI alone to do deals. So, in a nu...

Welcome to the Equidam podcast!
We start this episode by explaining why we've decided to launch a podcast. (It's not because the world needed another entrepreneurship podcast.)

We compare that to more traditional company valuation, and why the two differ. We also look more broadly at the current fundraising environment, recent trends (falling valuations, slower rounds) and some of the reasons why.
