Startups are in constant search of financing and these processes require periodic information on the financial situation of the company. Due Diligence is the auditing process in which a third party issues a report for potential buyers or investors interested in your company. This compilation of information allows to know in what state it is, identifying its strengths, opportunities, weaknesses and threats that, regardless of the result of the potential operation, is an opportunity for improvement. 

For Due Dilligence to be a path of success, you need the experience of those who have already gone through this.
