Pitch in Plain English: Storytelling for Hard Tech Founders

​You’re on a mission to change the world, and you love geeking out on how your technology does that…but you have a hard time explaining it, especially to investors and customers. 

​Sharing your story in plain English – and in a way that captivates non-technical people – is a skill you can and must learn to secure the resources you need.

To wrap up the year, we'll feature TWO founders who will present their deck and pitch the group (max of 5 minutes), then get feedback from Grow Through Story Founder & CEO Kirin Kalia and other founders in the room.

We'll then open the floor to YOUR questions about any pitch or comms issue you're having in your business.

​Space is limited to ensure everyone gets value, so priority will be given to hard tech founders (all founders welcome to RSVP!).
