Data Rooms and Capital Raising

Data rooms are known as a way to add value to companies that are acquired, but they also bring immense benefits to businesses that are raising capital. As a central place to organize, share, and managing the critical documents that investors need to review during their due diligence process and a virtual Data Room allows you to speed up the fundraise and increase confidence in the company’s performance.

Choosing what to include in your investor data room can be a daunting task for founders. Although the requirements of each company are different, most investors are looking for similar items. We’ve put together this list of documents you need to include in your investor data rooms as well as some suggestions on how you can best organize them.

A brief introduction deck – a basic PDF of your pitch that can be kept in the same location as your other documents – is the perfect way to quickly engage investors. It’s also a good opportunity to demonstrate that you take the importance of transparency and communication with investors seriously.

The inclusion of past investor updates proves that you’ve always taken their feedback into account, and are willing to share the information with them even when the results have been tough. These updates don’t just demonstrate your ability to navigate an uncertain time and build confidence with your investors. Tracking capabilities within your Data Room allows you to track which investors are interacting with the documents, and the time they spend in each folder. This gives you a glimpse into how serious they are about investing and provides you with the data that you require to make a decision.
