Produced by Foundersuite.com, "How I Raised It" goes behind the scenes with startup founders who have raised capital. In this interview, we chat with Kel Guerin of Ready Robotics. Ready Robotics is a "robotics-as-a-service" startup that leases collaborative robots to manufacturers for a period of time ranging from a few days to a year. The Company recently raised a $15 million Series A in a deal led by Drive Capital. Emerald Development Managers, RRE Ventures and Eniac Ventures also participated in the round. In this episode, Kel talks about the Company's roots in academia and the tech transfer process, how to find investors interested in robotics, why they are expanding in Columbus Ohio, when it's time to start working on your next raise, and more.
