My first question is: what’s the best way for a European startup to raise money in the US? We’re ready to move there if necessary.
Secondly, can you list some good accelerators/VCs/Angels in the US that are operating in fitness space? How to look them up and what’s the best way to approach them?
Madbarz has a strong community with more than 200,000 FB fans (https://www.facebook.com/Madbarz.1), and over 60,000 people on the waiting list for our app, with 400+ new signups each day. Currently we are in a closed beta, with around 1,500 users testing the app.
The team behind Madbarz is from Croatia (Europe), and we have users from all around the world. Up to date we’ve raised $115,000 form Traction Tribe, a Hungarian investment fund (http://traction-tribe.com/), but we are planning to raise a new round in the 1st quarter of 2015.
