A Seed Round is likely to be a company's first formal funding round. Before the Seed Round, the company might have taken pre-seed investment as one-off sums, or as a Bootstrap Round or via crowdfunding.
Series A is the funding round that follows a Seed Round. A company might raise Series A financing to grow the business, to continue developing the products or service, and to hire more people.
Like a Seed Round, Series A is equity-based so the company receives money from investors in exchange for shares in the company.
After Series A, if the company needs to continue fundraising, the next round would be Series B, followed by Series C and so on.How much do companies usually raise in a Series A funding round?
Companies usually aim to raise substantially more in a Series A than in their Seed Round, usually £2million or more in the UK.Who can invest in a Series A funding round?
In a Series A round, your investors could be individuals (angel investors) and/or venture capital firms (VCs). The investors who put in the most money are likely to be VCs.How long does it take to do a Series A funding round?
We recommend you allow at least eight weeks to complete your Series A to make sure all parties are commercially aligned. When all parties reach a deal, our platform can help to close your round quickly. We've completed Series A rounds in just a few weeks. In 2021, we helped a company complete a £2million round in just nine days. That was pretty fast, even for us.How much will it cost to do my Series A round with SeedLegals?
It depends on how much you raise. To find out the fee, use our calculator.
To do your Series A round with us, you'll need to be a SeedLegals member - this costs from £49/month. Read more on our Pricing page.
There are no billable hours - unlimited support from the SeedLegals team is included. However, in later-stage rounds such as Series A and beyond, there might be complex issues that are outside our areas of expertise. For example, if your company operates in a jurisdiction that we don't yet support. In these cases, we'll let you know as soon as possible that we need to refer you to an expert, and then you can choose to engage them separately, at your own cost.Can I use SeedLegals instead of a law firm for my Series A round?
