🤝 How I Met My VC — The Real Story Behind a Funded Deal
What actually convinces an investor to write a check? Join Venturous Counsel for an intimate evening where a founder and her lead investor pull back the curtain on exactly what it took to close a deal.
🎤 The Speakers
Roya Amini-Naieni — Co-Founder & CEO, Trilobio
A Forbes 30 Under 30 founder, Roya built Trilobio — a unified robotics and software platform designed to make lab automation more accessible, scalable, and practical for modern biology teams.
Andrew Sather — Partner, Initialized Capital
A serial entrepreneur turned investor, Andrew specializes in frontier technology, space, and robotics at Initialized Capital.
💡 What the Evening Is About
Trilobio closed an oversubscribed $8M seed round led by Initialized Capital. Together, Roya and Andrew will share the unfiltered story of how that partnership came to be — with a particular focus on how to make a complex, technical startup easy to believe in. Expect candid conversation, live Q&A, and the kind of insight you won't find in a pitch deck template.
