Start-Up Funding Blueprint


James & Suraj share insights for founders looking for start-up funding. They connect founders looking for an investment with an investor network. On top of that, they create materials that help founders create pitch decks to help them fundraise. A big new project is adapting AI to help content creators and consumers summarise and unlock insights from their audio and visual content.


How it all Started
James was used to working ridiculously long hours. It was late, actually early, when it dawned on him, rather than listen to podcasts, he'd like to produce content instead.

James had the idea that Suraj and himself would do a podcast based on interviewing founders and investors. Then share with people whilst learning themselves.
Suraj identifies a huge Corporate Escape market
If you are working 9 till 3 am in banking, then maybe, just maybe, you'll be thinking how do I escape this corporate jail!
