One of the greatest challenges facing many startups is how to grow the management team
beyond the initial two to three entrepreneurs who conceived the idea for the company and
have been working hard to implement their vision.
Investors expect the core management team to grow and become more complete as the
start up moves through the different funding stages. While two passionate founders are
usually adequate to attract initial Angel financing, the team must be somewhat more
complete to attract Seed financing and significantly stronger and more complete to attract
the level of capital typically associated with a Series A financing from VCs.
