As founders look beyond traditional equity financing, alternative funding models are becoming an increasingly important part of the startup ecosystem. Venture debt, revenue-based financing (RBF), and other flexible capital solutions are providing companies with new ways to fund growth, extend runway, and reduce dilution while offering investors access to a broader range of opportunities.
This session explores how alternative capital is reshaping the startup financing landscape, where these models are gaining traction, and the role they can play in supporting high-growth businesses. Investors, lenders, and founders will discuss the opportunities, limitations, and conditions needed for alternative financing solutions to become a more established part of the funding ecosystem.
