    EBITDA multiple for this industry?

    PEOPLE 
    I think there is a misunderstanding here. I'm talking about a Venture Capital investor. This is only a business plan for a project that the investor likes. I ask money (2M) from the investor, and he gets a share (%) in exchange. So I want to know how much the company will be valued at the end...

    EBITDA multiple for this industry?

    Expected ROI by investors?

    PEOPLE

    Expected ROI by investors?

    PEOPLE

    Expected ROI by investors?

    PEOPLE 
    I don't understand you. If I decrease the costs, the project won't be feasible. My question was: do all investors expect at least 300%? Do I have a chance to find an investor who is OK with 80%-100%? Thanks

    Expected ROI by investors?

    PEOPLE 
    Hello, I've a game project and have been in contact with an industry expert. He finds the project very impressive (including our past, the skilled team, the current game prototype, and the business plan). But he said I've no chance to get funded because the 80-100% profit in my business plan is...
