The world of startups is the hot spring of human ingenuity, wealth, well-being, life and death. The life of a founder is all about getting fast traction, quality revenues, fast product-market fit and a laser sharp go-to-market. The life of an investor is all about spotting the future early at the lowest risk and leaning into it.

Risks and rewards in this venture world have not been well aligned. RAIN re-adjusts that. Our focus is on closing break-through revenue deals, aligning them with funding strategy, reducing the waste of time and energy that distracts the founder and impacts value creation.

RAIN puts enterprise revenues back at the center. This is the focal point of today’s investing world. RAIN gives exceptional Founders completely new resources to achieve success.
