If you are an entrepreneur in the market for raising financing, you need to understand your segment and the investors that align with it. As I keep pointing out, the early stage investment process has segmented significantly into Pre-Seed, Seed, Post-Seed, Pre-Series A, Small Series A, Large Series A, and firms and individual investors have started to specialize in a subset of these various stages.
