Success can be elusive when it comes to fundraising, investing, and business building.
Although nothing can replace the learnings that come from your own personal experiences, with Money Moves, you can learn from those who have done it before.
Hosted by Neil Devani of Necessary Ventures, it's the perfect show for pre-seed founders, VCs, and anyone interested in raising capital, making great investments, and building venture scale businesses.
Each week, we’ll into the tactical and practical with guests who have raised anywhere from ten million dollars up to billions of dollars and have returned multiples of 10x to 100x+ for investors.
