  • Valuation of startups is an important step for any early-stage investor, whether an angel investor, venture capitalist, or crowdfunding investor.
    However, many investors have differing opinions on valuation, both in terms of how to do it, as well as whether or not it's even important.
    In Valuation Part 1 for investors, we answer some of these key questions, such as:
    -What is valuation?
    -Why is it important (or is it)?
    -Is valuation more of an art or a science?
    -What is the biggest mistake that early-stage investors make?
    -How do you calculate pre-money vs. post-money valuation?
    Then check out Valuation Part 2, where we will roll up our sleeves and talk about HOW to value a company.
    We'll look at some of the most common valuation methods (Comps, Discounted Cash Flow, VC Method, Berkus, Scorecard, Risk Factor Summation, and First Chicago Methods).
    We'll talk about how valuation works on equity crowdfunding portals. And lastly, we'll pick a real startup that is currently raising capital and run through the valuation exercise as a case study.

      Both but more art than science. There's a lot of estimation because of lack of info especially if the start up in on a completely new business model/tech

    I’ll have to watch this again. Thanks Brian. I’ve learned more on valuation than some of the top recommended books on the market.
