Week 12 inside MonkeFoundry: Product Readiness & Go-to-Market This week, teams reviewed their product readiness, identified potential blockers, and explored go-to-market strategies to reach the right audience, gather feedback, and build early traction. We were pleased to welcome our partners from @triton_one and @magicblock, who led this week's workshop and shared practical insights on preparing for launch, bringing new features to market, and making the most of early user feedback. The goal was to help teams prepare not only for launch, but also for what comes next: learning from users and improving their products.

Week 11 inside MonkeFoundry: Fundraising Strategy & Pitch Decks This week, our founders turned their attention to fundraising, starting with an important question: should they raise capital in the first place? Teams explored when to raise, how much funding to seek, what investors look for, and how to build a pitch deck that clearly presents their business and its potential. We welcomed @jemmmyjemm, who led Workshop #10 and shared practical insights on fundraising strategy, investor expectations, and how to prepare for conversations with potential backers. The focus wasn't just on preparing a pitch, but on helping founders make informed decisions about funding their next stage of growth.
