How to find an investor for developing a startup and entering foreign markets

On November 29, Moscow hosted the fourth time one of the largest conferences in Russia on entering international markets - Russian Startups Go Global 2019 .



The focus is on the cases of the founders of IT companies about leaving and working abroad, meetings with investors and support programs for foreign countries.



Conference speakers over 30 founders of global companies.







The event had the opportunity to communicate with international investors, corporations, accelerators, as well as with the founders of global companies.



Meetings with investors could be scheduled at VC Corner.



I tried to ask the maximum number of investors about their investment focus, what startups and at what stage are they most interested in, what is their average check.



Perhaps for some of you this information will be useful. Under cat contacts funds and support programs.

For me, as a representative of the robotic golf ball picker project https://golf-robotics.com , this meeting was very interesting. Interesting cases and networking. In my opinion, the main value at such conferences is on the sidelines of conversations and acquaintances. If you do not live in Moscow and plan to promote your project not only to all of Russia, but also to the whole world, you can safely send a presentation about your projects to these contacts.
