My startup is yet to make a profit. Can we still raise money?

Many startups at pre-revenue & "yet-to-make-profit" stage do raise money - so, it is less about current profitability & more about future economic prospects of the venture. Any startup that has envisioned a profitable unit-economic model & is confident about scaling that business up, can successfully make the case for a viable investment. You can work on these aspects to enhance your fund-raising prospects. You can also do a few trial pitches to see what kind of reaction and feedback the potential investors may have.
