Collisions YYC

In this episode, I welcome back past guest Matthew Wilson, Founder of Allied Venture Partners, to help you win at raising capital. He will help you understand how to perfect your pitch deck, how to identify which VCs are worth reaching out to, and what non-accredited investors can do to kick start their interest in investing in companies.

Show Notes

Bringing your idea out of the basement and into the world is scary enough. And raising capital to grow your idea? Terrifying. It doesn’t have to be! There’s no better person to help you understand venture capital than Matthew Wilson, who’s had 80+ investments. He brings us down to earth to remind us of what really matters (and it isn’t necessarily a higher valuation). He took a unique approach by curating a 600 strong network of entrepreneurs, angel investors, and VCs around the world. Why? Instead of trying to get Albertans to change their mind about what verticals to invest into, Matthew and his team decided to show Alberta companies to those around the world who are already interested in investing in those verticals. Whether you want to raise funds for your big idea or spread your wealth to companies you believe in, Matthew will help you understand the goals of VC on either side.
