Investor Interest Signals: Growth Stages

You can filter by Growth Stage in Investor Interest Signals, to understand more about the maturity of opportunities being looked at by investors and filter according to your priorities.

Note: There are some key differences between these stages, and those in Company Signals:

Here, Pre-Launch accounts for the fact that there are Investor Interest Signals focused on people as well as companies, and investors can show interest in an individual before they have officially established a company entity.
Bootstrapped companies feature in both feeds, but with the additional emphasis of smaller headcount in the Company Signals definition.
Pre-Seed / Seed is omitted in Investor Interest Signals, given there are different graduations between the Total Funding Amount for companies in each stage for the different feeds.
Exit Stage is also omitted here, as everything beyond $50M total funding is encompassed by Late Stage.
