We are in the process of getting our thesis validated by a few trusted advisors in our network and one of them make the following suggestion: _you would benefit from a corporate grant as anchor funder. OR go for a $10mn equity allocation from VC firm who need female founders._ We are not familiar with the concept of an anchor funder - does anyone have additional context they can share? Also curious if anyone has taken the equity allocation approach and can provide some additional context there. Thank you!
