Why Raising Startup Funding Takes 6–8 Months Raising startup funding is often a lengthy process, typically taking 6 to 8 months instead of just weeks. This timeline can be broken down into three essential phases. 1. Finding a Lead Investor (Approx. 3 Months) The first step is securing a lead investor, who plays a crucial role in validating your startup and setting the investment terms. This phase involves networking, pitching, and negotiating. 2. Due Diligence (Approx. 4 Months) Once a lead investor is on board, they conduct thorough due diligence. This process includes financial audits, market analysis, and assessing the team, all of which require meticulous attention and can significantly extend the timeline. 3. Filling Out the Round (3-4 Months) After securing the lead, you need to attract additional investors to complete the funding round. This involves more outreach and negotiations, further prolonging the process. Patience and strategic planning are crucial for success
