About this event

  • Event lasts 3 hours

Led by Christina Caljé, an entrepreneur and investor with experience in New York, London and Amsterdam, this International Clinic will offer practical tools to help with preparing the early stages of fundraising within the technology sector and beyond. Designed for entrepreneurs and artists alike, it will provide hands-on guidance on identifying your ideal investors, aligning on values, and building meaningful relationships.

In this session, Christina Caljé will guide us through the process of identifying and attracting the right investors. Exercises will explore how to align with funders based on shared values and how they can support our long-term strategy.
