We’re excited to share our latest data on founder sentiment. This is one of the largest and longest-running surveys of early stage founders, with 482 respondents, of which 37% are women and 53% are people of color.
The picture that emerges is one of a founder community that is more optimistic than ever, despite challenges raising capital.
📣 Founder optimism is at a seven year high, despite challenges raising capital
📈 The percentage of early-stage founders with less than 6 months of runway has rebounded to previous levels
📲 For early-stage startups, AI isn’t replacing people, it’s enabling teams to move faster
🤝 AI is uprooting the pattern of investors backing people they know
🎯 The gender pessimism gap has closed: male and female founders now have similar levels of fundraising optimism
Read the full report below. Thank you for all the founders who took part in the survey!
