How to Give a Good Pitch
Spring ENTR Workshop with Michael Tucker
Based
on his experience helping companies raise their first round of capital, Michael
will discuss how best to pitch potential investors. He'll outline the various
traction companies typically need to raise money, who early stage investors
typically are (the importance of knowing your audience), and the necessary
items needed to include in your pitch. He'll also go over example pitch
decks from companies that have successfully raised money.
This talk will be particularly helpful for students interested in entering the
Cangialosi Business Innovation Competition this spring. Michael will
emphasize the key criteria the judges will be evaluating in the
competition. Don't miss this one!!!
