Engaging with the G.I.L.C. community has been an incredibly enriching experience. The sense of camaraderie among members has been both supportive and motivating

Katha VC is a venture capital firm that invests in fintech in high-growth emerging markets. I was keen to raise for one of our syndicated deals through GILC due to its global membership base of family offices that are active investors across sectors and stages.

 

I first learned about GILC through a recommendation from a founder who had a positive experience. The club's reputation for fostering a supportive community of business leaders and its track record of facilitating successful fundraising rounds initially attracted me to join.

 

Engaging with the community has been an incredibly enriching experience. The sense of camaraderie among members has been both supportive and motivating. The diversity of expertise within the community has provided me with valuable insights from various industries.

 

For founders looking to raise capital, my advice would be to thoroughly prepare before seeking funding. Understand your financials inside out, have a clear vision for growth, and articulate your unique value proposition effectively. Building relationships with potential investors early, even before you're ready to raise funds, is key. Lastly, remain open to feedback and be prepared to iterate your approach based on investor responses.
