Has there been notable effort around improving the effectiveness of this process? From a distance it appears to be a waste of time. I'm making assumptions--that primarily makes guesses and significant assumptions about the range of those who attempt to raise funds. (Having gone through the seedfund process previously I have similar opinions about that program as well, not that this has much relevance to the question I'm asking. However that program doesn't require as much time which depending on circumstance makes it appear more effective.)
