Perfecting Your Elevator Pitch:
How to win $25K @ Survivor 8 On November 8th
Learn the effective techniques needed to create a winning “Elevator Pitch” to win it all at our upcoming November 8th 2013 Survivor event. This pitch will also be helpful to raise money for outside early stage investment scenarios.
We will have a contest for all participants to have their pitch reviewed by a group of serial entrepreneurs and TCVN board members. One winner will get a free ticket to Survivor 2013!
Why is this important regardless of how much money you’re raising?
The first thing every investor wants to hear is your elevator pitch. Without it; you will likely not get the right attention to get you capital.
