How do you get funded by Sequoia Capital? That was the topic of a presentation given by Kevin Hartz, CEO and co-founder of Eventbrite, who spoke at Vator Splash September. Sequoia has backed two of Kevin's companies - Eventbrite and Xoom. Sequoia continued to back Eventbrite in the company's most recent $20 million funding round.

Faith Merino already wrote a fabulous write-up of the keynote here: Kevin Hartz tips for getting financing.

In this video, you can hear Kevin himself share the lessons and tips he gave to the Splash audience.

Loved what Kevin had to say, and it's no wonder that Sequoia's companies and entrepreneurs are of such high quality with the deal flow process they use! Great tips in general for raising funding whether VC or angel capital, thanks for sharing Bambi!
