Challenges Securing Tinnitus Research Funding without Networking or VC Access

[gonencaksu]

Do you have any idea where I could get funding for commercial tinnitus research? We need to run GLP toxicology tests as part of our IND package before moving to Phase 1 trials. Unfortunately, I have not been able to make connections with investors or founders. Networking events are too loud for my hyperacusis, and most pharmaceutical venture capital firms do not even open emails unless they come with introductions from trusted founders or friends. It feels like trying to fight with an injured leg.
