Funding Round

Startups look to raise capital can participate in a funding round.

While they are various types of funding rounds, the most commonly seen in startups include the following funding rounds: Seed, Series A Fundraising, Series B Fundraising, and Series C Fundraising. In order for a funding round to take place, a valuation must be performed by analysts for the business in question. Common factors that analysts use for valuations include market size, risk, management, and historical transparency. Types of Funding RoundsThe seed funding round officially kicks off a startup’s equity fundraising process. Used by startups to finance the beginning stages of its business, some proceeds of seed funding may go towards product development and market research.Common investors include angel investors, friends, family, and venture capital firms.Companies that emerge out of the seed funding round that has gone on to prove its ability to build a consumer base while generating a regularly occurring revenue can participate in Series A Fundraising.Businesses that wish to opt-in to a Series A funding round must also possess a strong business strategy to illustrate how it will continue to manifest into a successful business. Series B Fundraising are available for companies that are seeking to depart the development stage that has valuations between $30 million to $60 million.Companies that go on to make it to Series C funding rounds are considerably successful where the aim is to scale a company as efficiently and quickly as possible. Typical investors include investment banks, private equity firms, and hedge funds. For many investors, monitoring how a startup goes through funding rounds is a tactical strategy for securing high-probability investments.

after raising $20 million. The Series B1 investment round was jointly led by FTX Ventures and Liberty City Ventures.

DoraHacks has made its name in the web3 industry with its curated hackathons. According to the company, it has organized hackathons for companies and developer teams, including big names like Solana, Polygon and Avalanche.

Startup

A company operating within its first stage of investing is known as a startup. While startups may give the impression that the company must be new, that is not always the case.Many companies can have this designation after nearly three years of existence. Typically, a company exits the startup status after a period between 3 to 5 years or after successful funding rounds where capital is acquired. Startups tend to derive out of the belief that there is a demand for a service or product which is created by at least one or more entrepreneurs. These seek capital as a means to bypass a limited availability of capital and combat high costs. This is why startups seek funding from funding rounds, crowdfunding, venture capitalists, financial institutions, or other sources. What Makes Startups Successful?Given the fact that most startups fail, the first three years of a startup are critical which is why startup founders require capital for talent acquisition, creating effective business models and plans.In parallel it is important to provide proof-of-concept for the long-term through an established user base and consistent revenue streams. Many startups use seed funding, which occurs during the first stage of funding rounds, where fundraised capital is used to conduct market research and product or service development.Sometimes, startups go through an acquisition process, where they merge larger companies competing in a similar industry. Companies that generate less than $20 million annually, possess less than 80 employees, and are primarily controlled by the founding entrepreneur(s) are generally classified as startups. Today, some of the world’s most successful companies started as startups, such as Facebook, Uber, and SpaceX to name a few.

Accelerating Services

The company is going to use the fresh capital to accelerate its services like Dora Grant DAO, a decentralized grant community, and the launch of Dora Infinite Fund, a permanent venture fund.

Dora Grant DAO has already been launched earlier this year, and it is aiming to provide grants to more post-hackathon-pre-investment stage projects. Moreover, for the Dora Infinite Fund, the company is planning a non-fungible token (NFT) drop this year.

“We’re excited to launch Dora Infinite Ventures. We will fund more frontier tech startups in Web3, quantum and space,” said Steve Ngok, a Partner and Director of Business at DoraHacks.

The latest funding round is not the big-ticket capital raise of the company. It raised $8 million from Binance Labs in a strategic round last year. Dora Factory, DoraHacks’ DAO-as-a-Service incubation, also raised a separate $20 million.

“Empowering multi-chain innovation has always been our mandate at FTX,” said Adam Jin, a Partner at FTX Ventures. “We believe DoraHacks will keep playing a crucial role in Web3, and FTX will work closely with the Dora team to support startup founders.”
