Join us on Tuesday, April 3rd at Hygge Coworking for a workshop on putting together a pitch deck the right way. We're not talking about decks used for pitch competitions and demo days. We're talking about the only deck that really matters: the one you send to potential investors, partners, and advisors.
Intended for all entrepreneurs -- Regardless if you're putting together a deck to share an idea at work or raise a Series A, this workshop will be worth your time. We'll explore how use a pitch deck as an instrument to accomplish several things.
You'll get actionable advice & best practices, followed by a deck teardown session -- Learn how to structure a pitch deck, see decks from successful and failed startups, and then stick around to get feedback on how to make your own deck shine.
Â
The event is free, but space is VERY limited -- The workshop is free to attend, but space is very limited. This event is intended for entrepreneurs seeking help. It'll be intimate. Come prepared with your pitch deck so we can break it down.
