I have come across several statements such as: a single person cannot raise money on their own (you need to be in a team of at least 2 people), it is not worth it because there is pressure on you, etc.
What is your experience with raising money?
What did it give you, and who did you raise it from?
What do you think helped you to a large extent to get the raise?

In my opinion, the startup scene is not evenly supported, and some countries are not so passionate about business. I'm from Central Europe, and I don't feel any extra entrepreneurial spirit here. From my observations, countries like France, and Germany (maybe Poland) have always been mainly startup-oriented.
