How to Raise in the Era of AI: Founder & Investor Panel

A founder-and-investor panel at AI House on what raising actually looks like in 2026: what investor-ready means now, which numbers matter, how long a round takes, and where deals stall in diligence. Matthijs Huiskamp (CEO, Altura) and Jasper Spiegeler (CEO, OMRT) give the founder side; Saumitra Dubey (Partner, Smartfin) and Arun Bhahirathan (Principal, Prosus Ventures) the investor side, moderated by Jitse Rupp of 0Delta. Doors 17:30, panel 18:10, audience Q&A 18:55, drinks until 20:30. Free, co-hosted with Prosus and Cloudflare. Attendance is curated, so you request to join rather than book. Why go: it is pitched at late-seed and Series A founders who have raised before, and the Dutch-versus-international question gets aired properly, which it rarely does. Not a first-time fundraising session.
