You have the idea. You wrote the business plan. You scored the meeting with potential investors. Now what do you do? Pitch away!

Shows like “Shark Tank”, “The Profit”, “The Apprentice”, and even “Silicon Valley” have brought the entrepreneur to the center stage and made millions of viewers feel that they are just a stone’s throw away from becoming the next highly celebrated “unicorn.”

The reality is that “Pitchin’ Ain’t Easy.” Connecting with potential investors, scoring an interview, building the right case, and being able to share it all in a way that brings investment take a lot of work.

Our Coffee Chat for May features four veterans of the pitch circuit that have pitched ideas, coached entrepreneurs, and funded startups. We are looking forward to a great conversation surrounding the importance of the business pitch.
