Initial 
Screening

If the startup passes the initial screening, the

due diligence process. It involves 
a review of the startup's financial 
statements, tax records, and legal 
agreements. The investor will look 
for any potential financial risks or 
liabilities and evaluate the 
startup's financial projections to 
determine whether they are

diligence process. The investor will conduct market research to 
evaluate the potential demand for the startup's product or 
service and to assess the competitive landscape. This will help 
the investor to determine whether the startup has a viable 
business model and a competitive advantage.

the necessary skills and experience to 
execute on the business plan

The legal review is another critical 
part of the due diligence process. The 
investor will review the startup's legal 
agreements, such as contracts with 
suppliers and customers, intellectual 
property agreements, and any 06
pending litigation. This is done to 
identify any potential legal risks or 
liabilities that could impact the 
startup's future success.
