@mehdi_rifai owning a significant share of a billion dollars I would suggest has more value than a $1M revenue bootstrapped SaaS, unless perhaps the SaaS was entirely life purpose aligned

@cyclicshaw you definitely have more money with the VC options but your freedom is limited

I think that will purely depend upon people to people and their vision, if you are working on any new category or any path breaking technology which require lot of money to start with then you will have to go for VC but you are build some lifestyle business or are very satisfied with improving some current product then you can go for bootstrapped

@kunversation yes indeed for deep tech and R&D heavy businesses VC money is necessary. The questions is more about less R&D heavy products.
I think it would depend on what one is building and on the Founders' vision.
If the outlook is to build a sustainable, profitable business with linear growth (mostly), bootstrapping is the best approach.
If one is in an extremely competitive, high growth space (say D2C, Tech, etc), it might need external capital infusion, to scale fast and outdo competition. And in the process, build value, employment, revenue.
Of course in both cases, PMF and revenue will play crucial roles.
