How to Raise Your First Priced Round

Raising your first priced round is a completely different beast than all those SAFEs that got you here. Healing Healthtech is the organizer, but the subject matter will be industry-agnostic. Healing Healthtech is teaming up with Qapita to offer a 4 part in-person bootcamp for founders seeking to raise their first priced round. Session 1 (1pm-1:45pm): Data room and cap table hygiene and best practices for a priced raise.Session 2 (2pm-2:45): Hustle and Workflow to find, pitch, and close your first institutional investor(s). Session 3 (3pm-3:45): Words that matter: Negotiating an effective term sheet and priced fundraise. Session 4 (4pm-4:45): VC panel and fireside chat. 4 active seed and A investors answer your questions about current market conditions for a priced raise.[Organizer's note: I previously ran multiple accelerators at a major university and have mentored for many others. My thesis for 2026-2027 events is to distill the highest-impact parts of those programs away from the noise and pageantry into short, intensive workshops open to any founder willing to commit the time in participating. -V] By signing up you agree to subscribe to both Healing Healthtech, a monthly Substack of in-person NYC digital health events as well as interviews and deep dives with builders, investors, clinicians, and operators seeking to better the human condition as well as periodic outreach from our sponsors.​About Qapita Qapita provides cap table management, valuations and ESOP administration for startups building and working anywhere in the world.
