Back to 🌱 startups — TechCrunch 2024 sparked an interesting discussion led by Elizabeth Yin, co-founder of Hustle Fund: high early valuations aren’t always a win. Inflated early valuations can set 🌌 sky-high expectations that become harder to meet as the rounds progress, often doubling or tripling. That’s why early valuations should be realistic — ones you can 🚀 grow into with traction. Failure to grow can demotivate employees, causing their stocks to 📉 lose value. 💭 What do you think — are investors right that overestimation can be risky? #startuplife #startups #valuation #entrepreneurship #growthstrategy #techcrunchdisrupt #tech #goodfaceagency #bestexperience
Totally agree: staying realistic is essential to meet expectations
Now, it may be a bit controversial, but underestimation can sometimes prove better than overestimation!
