Event Details

Securing funding is one of the biggest hurdles for early-stage entrepreneurs. At our September 16th StartUp Fayette event, we’re excited to welcome Karen Rands, the Compassionate Capitalist, as our featured speaker.

Karen will break down the many ways startups can raise capital — from bootstrapping and friends & family to crowdfunding, angel investors, and venture capital. Most importantly, she’ll highlight the critical differences between selling equity and taking on debt, helping founders understand the trade-offs, challenges, and opportunities in each path.

Whether you’re looking to grow steadily or scale quickly, this session will give you a clearer picture of how to align your funding strategy with your business vision and stage of growth.

Come connect with fellow entrepreneurs, learn from Karen’s expertise, and walk away with practical insights to fuel your startup journey.
