### **How a Young Startup Can Get Funded** 1. **Bootstrapping:** Start with your own savings and focus on lean operations to grow without external funding. 2. **Friends and Family:** Seek small investments from those who believe in your vision. Keep terms clear to avoid conflicts. 3. **Angel Investors:** Pitch to local angels interested in early-stage startups. Highlight your growth potential and passion. 4. **Venture Capital:** Target VCs that invest in your industry and stage. Build relationships and present a solid, scalable plan. 5. **Crowdfunding:** Use platforms like Kickstarter to raise funds and validate your idea. Engage your community for success. 6. **Government Grants:** Look for grants or subsidies that support your industry. Prepare a strong application to stand out. 7. **Incubators/Accelerators:** Join programs that offer seed funding, mentorship, and resources in exchange for equity.
