Hi there, I’m Eddy Valentin, founder of Valentin Report Let me be the first the welcome you to this incredible new product launch we’ve been working on for months, IReC. If you’re an entrepreneur who is on the verge of launching your first round of venture or equity capital raise for your startup, but you’re really not sure how or where to start, then you’re in the right place.
Navigating the world of private equity is an awfully challenging and demanding task. Unless you’ve got a CFO to handle capital raising and capital infrastructure management for you, this is going to be a massive effort that’s going to sap your energy and time, taking you away from the things that made your company stand out in the first place: you.
As an entrepreneur managing a relatively young company, your greatest resource is your time, and don’t be naive: business and capital structure development in anticipation of securing investor capital requires a steep learning curve. Go into your first round of capital raise blindly and without even the slightest bit of guidance, and you’re likely to fall embarrassingly short of your goals.
This is a programme for like-minded entrepreneurs who are sharing with you the same experience: raising operating or growth capital from investors for the very first time. Look, I’m not saying this is going to be easy, and I’m not going to promise you a magic wand. But I am here to coach you through the process, educating you through a series of original, intellectual lecture videos, text book chapters, and supplemental workbook materials, all produced, written, or otherwise developed by myself and the experienced team at ValReport, to best prepare you for your capital raising journey.
So for now, read on, and when you’re ready, get started for free.
See you on the inside,

Eddy Valentin
Founder, Valentin Report
Most dream ideas of these entrepreneurs get extinguished when the capital raising process begins. Entrepreneurs in the modern era simply approach investors with very little preparation and understanding of their business and how it is going to enter the market.
Ask most investors and they will admit that sometimes it can be a frustrating experience going through hundreds of deals every week and cringing at the great ideas that are backed by poor preparation and ultimately leading to the project ending up in the drawer.
There are of course the 10% of deals that go through Series A funding and hopefully go on to become world class businesses. The major difference between the projects that get funded and the ones that don’t lies in the CEO’s ability to prepare their business/project for investment.
The rules in raising capital are simple, if you fall short of the below requirements, you will most likely walk out a beaten and exhausted entrepreneur.
As discussed earlier, 95% of first time entrepreneurs never get through the funding stage when trying to commercialize their idea. This makes the capital raising process a nerve racking and unpopular process for would be successful entrepreneurs.
It doesn’t have always have to be a time-consuming and exhaustive process if you have the right tools at hand, just think about what MYOB has done for small business. IReC is your playbook when you get to the funds raising stage and once you understand how the whole process works, your confidence when facing investors will increase dramatically.
