6connex Funding History

6connex has raised a total of $527K over the last 15 years Raising this capital resulted in dilution for Ruben Castaño despite non-dilutive funding options like Founderpath. With $527K money raised, 6connex would have to sell for $5.3M, for investors to be happy. For any founders and early employees to make money, the company would need to sell for at least $527K assuming no crazy liquidation preferences.

Why are so many SaaS founders taking money from Founderpath.com instead of VC`s?
