Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. Investors in the startup space have a certain expectation for returns. Startups raising funding should keep in mind these expectations and only approach them if you have a deal that is in the game for it. Venture investors including angels, venture capitalists, and limited partners, typically look for a 20-30 percent internal rate of return (IRR) over a 5-year time horizon. This can also be expressed as a“two and a half to four times” the original money invested. If it takes longer than five years, then investors will look for a 5-10X ROI to maintain a 20-30 percent IRR.
Let’s go startup something today.
