NextFunding
Eligibility
This is our most exclusive program. We only accept startups that we are confident we can get funded.
- Post-MVP with proven traction (revenue, active B2B pilots, or high user growth).
- You are raising a Pre-Seed or Seed round between €250k and €2M+.
- You have historical data on your acquisition costs (CAC) and customer lifetime value (LTV).
- You are ready to open your data room to institutional investors within 30 days.
What you gain
Raising capital isn't about sending 1,000 cold emails; it's about flawless math, a perfect narrative, and the right warm intros. When you join NextFunding, you are getting an inhouse VC and a complete fundraising infrastructure.
- A VC manager will help you build the exact 3-5 year financial projections, cap table models, and unit economic breakdowns that lead investors demand.
- AI-assisted pitch deck refinement, legal document structuring, and deep due diligence preparation.
- Access to our database of 2,500+ verified investors. The OS matches your exact metrics and sector to VCs.
- We do not do email blasts. Our team provides direct, personalized introductions to matched Syndicates, Angels, and early-stage Funds.
- Strategic support when reviewing valuation, board seats, and term sheet clauses.

Results
Application process
Because we take on the risk, admission is highly selective and based on your current metrics. Selected teams will cover an admission fee of €1.500+VAT. After completing the program, founders are presented to our network of VCs and the Freshmango Angels Syndicate for a possible investment between €250k to €2M+. If you raise the round, we take a €20.000+VAT fee for the program. If you don't raise, you cover only the admission fee, no further payments required.
The Process:
- Apply with your current deck, traction metrics, and target raise amount through our OS platform.
- A 20-minute deep dive with our team to assess your fundability.
- If we believe we can get you funded, we sign the agreement and begin the audit immediately.
