INNOVATION

It all started with the fire, and then came the wheel. The wheel of the potter soon became the wheels of travel. Since then man has travelled to the Moon and back and is planning to travel to Mars, for a new life !!!

Man has come a long way, since the discovery of the fire and the invention of the wheel. Imagine, if man had commercialized them, the amount of royalty he would have earned over the period. Just imagine, if Arya Bhatta had patented the Zero "0" and if Sushruta had copyrighted the Charaka Samhita, what riches would they have accomplished and how advanced, would modern medicine research would have been by now. So, if we dare say they were all missed opportunities, and it should never happen again. We at TeamStrategize, want to ensure that this, actually does not happen again and that TS is here for the ”Critical Thinkers”.

fund-raising
Fund Raising

When an idea of a product or a service is born, funds are required to sustain it. Such type of funds are infused into the business, primarily at three stages. Firstly, at the initial stage of the Start-up. Here the funds are required for setting up the business and the R&D work that needs to be developed. Secondly, when the R&D is complete and prototype is to built or the market test needs to be done. Thirdly, when the product is developed and needs to enter the market.
Funds are generally acquired from Angel Investors or through Venture Capital Fund Companies.

Angel investors are usually high net worth individuals who fund start- up ventures and get an equity stake in the business in return. Start- ups with the potential to grow and offer high returns are the ones opted by the angel investors. The funding offered, in these cases are usually a one-time investment or given as and when required by the start- up.

Venture Capital Fund Co. are on the other hand a form of private equity that is invested in start-up ventures with a long-term growth potential. They are funds managed professionally and they invest in selected promising ventures.
