About Selma

Fundraising isn’t just about a pitch deck—it’s about sharp positioning, the right investor targets, and consistent, disciplined execution. I work alongside startup and scaleup founders to define a clear fundraising strategy, build a qualified investor pipeline, run outreach, and prepare for high-stakes meetings. I am hands-on: Deliverables can include investor lists and CRM, outreach templates, deck feedback, weekly pipeline reviews, meeting preparation, and negotiation support.

I support teams across both fundraising and investor relations, helping them refine their story, reach the right VCs/CVCs/BAs, and turn outreach into high-quality conversations and momentum.

Having supported 200+ startups that collectively raised €50M+, and through my experience in Investor Relations & Partnerships in international innovation and venture ecosystems, I bring a mix of structured execution (investor mapping, CRM setup, outreach sequences, follow-ups, weekly pipeline reviews) and high-impact preparation (deck feedback, narrative, Q&A, meeting prep, and negotiation support) to improve conversion throughout the raise.
