Episode 27: How to Raise Funding from Supportive, Values-Aligned Investors with the Berkeley Chamber of Commerce

In mid-October, Capital Insight co-host Jenny Kassan was asked to speak at the Berkeley Chamber of Commerce about the advantages of choosing community-based methods of fundraising rather than venture capital. In this episode, we revisit Jenny’s Berkeley presentation as she breaks down how to raise funding from the right investors. Key quotes: “When people tell me I do non-traditional or alternative finance, I tell them no, venture capital is non-traditional and alternative. What I do is something that humans have done for a very long time.” Bio: The Berkeley Chamber of Commerce is a private, not-for-profit organization established in 1900 to support business in Berkeley, California. The Chamber is a mostly volunteer organization, and remains dedicated to hosting educational and networking events.
