Investor Deck Storytelling Workshop | Lessons from Real Pitches

This one-hour online workshop designed for early-stage startup founders will explore key storytelling components of your investor decks. We’ll review a collection of examples of real mistakes and omissions, as pointed out by investors, and discuss ways to fix them. You’ll learn how to utilize storytelling, grab attention and increase engagement, simplify overly complex details, say more with less and focus on delivering a clear key message!

The ideal target audience is early-stage startup founders currently fundraising/planning to fundraise in the near future and looking to make their pitch decks top-notch, appealing to investors and easy to follow. Obviously, we welcome anyone interested in the topic to attend.

Participation is free but registration is required. The Zoom link to the event will be sent to your email after registration, on the event day.

The event is co-organized by Red Brick & Polar Hedgehog.

This Autumn we onboarded 9 new startups to our accelerator program. From train traffic optimization to using health data to identify risks of chronic diseases. From packaging memories & connecting generations through storytelling to a marketplace connecting local service providers with buyers. Demo Day is a perfect time for startup founders to hit the stage, show what they worked on in the last 8 weeks and tell about their growth plans.

You are invited to the Demo Day event on Wednesday 13.11. from 14:30-17:00 at Platform6.
