Host: Caya, Co-Founder & CEO at Slidebean
Join Caya, CEO and Co-Founder of Slidebean, for a live, practical webinar focused on one of the most confusing parts of fundraising: startup valuation.
Valuation often feels like a black box, numbers get thrown around, assumptions aren’t always clear, and founders are left wondering how investors actually land on a price. This session is designed to make that process understandable and grounded in reality, especially for early-stage startups.
In this one-hour live session, we’ll walk through how startup valuations are typically formed, what factors really matter at different stages, and which parts of the equation founders can influence. Rather than formulas or hype, the focus is on how investors think, how ranges are shaped, and how to approach valuation with clearer expectations.
* The most common valuation approaches and when each one is used
* How stage, traction, and market context affect your valuation range
* How comparable companies are used, and misused, by investors
* The connection between valuation, dilution, and how much you raise
* Ways to sanity-check numbers and avoid common mistakes in negotiations
This webinar is for founders who want a realistic valuation range before starting fundraising conversations, and who want to understand the trade-offs behind the numbers they’re discussing.
The goal is simple: help you go into fundraising discussions informed, prepared, and grounded in how valuation actually works.
