Frequently asked questions

How many investors in Cork, Ireland are on RaiseHunt?

RaiseHunt currently lists 12 investors in Cork, Ireland.

Are investors in Cork, Ireland angels or funds?

Both. 5 are angel investors putting in their own money, and 7 are people making investment decisions at 1 firm.

What stage do investors in Cork, Ireland invest at?

Most list Seed and Series A among the rounds they take part in.

How do I contact investors in Cork, Ireland?

Every profile shows whether an email address is on file. The addresses themselves, along with AI matching and outreach, are in the RaiseHunt app.

Is the list of investors in Cork, Ireland free to browse?

Yes. The directory and every profile page are free to read. Matching your own startup against them requires an account.

Do I have to be based in Cork, Ireland to raise from investors there?

Not usually. Plenty of investors back companies outside their own city, and remote first meetings are normal. Being in Cork, Ireland helps with introductions and follow-on conversations, but it is rarely the thing that decides an investment.

What should I have ready before reaching out?

A short deck, a one-paragraph description of what you do and who it is for, and a clear number for how much you are raising. Investors read the first two lines before they decide whether to open the deck, so those lines matter more than the rest of the document.

Does a warm introduction still matter?

It helps, mostly because it moves your email out of a crowded inbox. It is not a requirement. A cold message that shows you understand what someone has already backed, and why your company fits that pattern, gets read more often than a vague introduction from a distant contact.

How do I know which Cork, Ireland investors are a fit?

Look at what they have already funded rather than what their profile says they like. Stage matters most, then sector, then geography. An investor who has never funded anything at your stage is unlikely to start with you, however well the sector lines up.

How long does raising a round usually take?

Longer than most first-time founders plan for. The work splits into building the list, running outreach, taking meetings, and closing, and each stage can stretch. Start before you need the money, not when the runway is short.

What do investors look at first?

The team and the problem, in that order, before the product. Early on there is rarely enough traction to argue from numbers alone, so the question they are answering is whether these particular people are likely to work this problem out.
