Early Stage Startups - what can you expect?

The CISO Ventures community is here to help accelerate your product-market-fit journey. Private to members (InfoSec. industry leaders), the Early Stage Startups section is for community members looking to help early stage cybersecurity teams. The section contains profiles on startups, listing 'their specific needs' for the community including a workflow to capture member interest. The needs can range from 'capital from investors' to 'early customers' and everything in between!

 

Interested in leveraging the help of our community? Here are the next steps

1. Fill out our intake form, it captures 80% context to showcase what makes you unique (bonus points if you were referred by a CISO Ventures community member)

2. The Whiteboard Venture Partners team, will reach out for additional context (20%) before we create a profile capturing each startup's needs in the Early Stage Startups section.

3. Each startup's profile is presented to the community (via email, real-time exchanges) to capture interest from the community

4. Based on the interest received, we will make warm introductions to the community members who are good fit based on your needs

 

PS: each startup profile is meant to remain alive and will continue to capture major relevant updates

    VC/PE Funding

    Discussion 
    The purpose of this section is to look at all post Series A cybersecurity deals and the publicly available information on the formal role a CISO/CSO continues to play in the value creation journey of InfoSec. company. While we celebrate the CISO/CSO associated, we also want the CISO Ventures community to engage on their experiences (as a prospect/customer/partner) working with the specific company - we will make sure that any/all constructive feedback here finds its way back to the respective leadership team
