Q2 Early-Stage Venture Report w/ Carta’s Head of Insights: Valuations, Round Sizes, Graduation Rates & more. | Peter Walker, Head of Insights at Carta
Manage episode 435515525 series 3298391
Carta is the backbone of most venture-backed startups. They have access to specific information about every single round, not just what's reported in TechCrunch.
Today, Peter Walker, Carta's Head of Insights joins us to share the findings from Carta's Q2 reports. We go deep into data from pre-seed, seed and Series A rounds. We cover median valuations, time between rounds, graduation rates between rounds, the AI and repeat-founder premiums, and much more.
VCs know most of this data. Founders need to be equally well-informed. You won't want to miss this episode.
Why you should listen:
- What are the typical pre-seed, seed and Series A rounds.
- Why stacking SAFEs is very dangerous.
- How to minimize dilution in the early-stages
- What is standard founder ownership, founder equity splits and ESOP sizes.
- Why the graduation from Seed to Series A is so low and the bar for Series A so high.
- Many more data points for pre-seed to Series A Venture Capital and Startup data.
