Building a software startup, like any other startup, is no easy feat. The hours are long and the work can be challenging, but the journey can be immensely rewarding! As with other types of startups, there are many ways to source funding, but software startups are unique in that they generally need very little working capital to launch, which opens up new avenues for founder success.

This presentation will cover the non-technical aspects of building a software startup and presents some alternatives to the venture capital model, as well as offering some suggestions on successful VC engagement, with a focus on building profitable startups outside of Silicon Valley and the Sand Hill Road corridor.
