Being The Pattern (Stax / Suneera Madhani - Ep23)
When you are a first-time founder and fundraiser, the first thing you’ll look for is a guide.You’ll look for successful founders in the industry you’re planning to enter, or companies that share the same vision. And most likely, you’ll look for ones that have a similar background.Like any other beginner, you need a pattern to follow.But what do you do when you don’t have a model to follow because you are actually the first person to step in that door?No guide. No patterns. No representation.That’s the situation Stax’s CEO and founder, Suneera Madhani encountered when starting her company.Having been raised in a solution-oriented environment by her immigrant parents, Suneera knew she needed to move forward on her own and be the pattern she needed.In this episode, Suneera brings us into her journey as she reminisces all the struggles she faced - on top of needing to raise money.With no venture background, having nobody to follow, and dealing with challenges as a minority, Suneera was able to pave her way toward her now billion-dollar company, Stax.----------If you're looking for more fundraising content, grab my weekly newsletter packed full of strategies and insights around how to raise money: fundedpod.com/newsletter
