The one of a kind fundraising & pitching coaching based on a lot of mistakes as founder, plus experiences as VC and executive at companies like:
Iskender was featured in media outlets like:
"The FUNDRAISING COUP is the most comprehensive and impactful coaching program for every founder who wants to successfully raise venture capital."
Help you to understand VCs better, reveal insights you never heard of; and...
Provide you with secret tricks that will enable you to fundraise better than 99% of the startups out there.
As a founder, VCs were a mysterious species to me. When I pitched to them, I had no idea about how they think, what they like, what they don’t like, what they are looking for, how they decide, etc. Looking back after having turned into a VC myself, I was beyond naive and wasted a lot of opportunities in my founder life.
The FundraisingCOUP is here to save you from making the same mistakes.
I’ll reveal for you unique insights about the mindset and psychology of Venture Capitalists – from the perspective of a Venture Capitalist.
I’ll provide you with secret tricks, knowing how we VCs think, act, and decide.
My insights and tricks will help you to succeed on that one big goal: Raise the funds you need in minimum time and the maximum outcome.
FundraisingCOUP Members get access to regular group calls. These live video calls are your opportunity to ask Iskender your questions, to learn from others, and practice to apply the FundraisingCOUP Framework with exercises and virtual presentations. The group calls are your safe environment to hone your skills and test your pitch in front of Iskender – a real VC – and a real audience!
Perfectionate your elevator pitch, deck, and delivery even before you kick off your fundraise and talk to the first VC. A unique program and opportunity.

Hi Iskender, (...) By the way, I do remember you and your feedback very well. I have had hundreds of interactions with VCs and there are only four people I remember out of all them. You are one of them. I really appreciate the time you took to give me feedback, it gave me a whole new perspective on how you -professional investors- think. Some bits of the feedback were hard to read but necessary. Thank you.

Years ago, I produced and shot a short movie under the title: “YET ANOTHER VC PITCH”. But nobody has ever seen it – it was too embarrassing to me to publish it publicly. But I decided to show some vulnerability: Every FundraisingCOUP member will be guided through the Online Masterclass with chapters from the video and will get access to the full short movie. Embarrassing.
