Pitch Deck Deep Dive: From First Slide to Funded
November 7 | 10 AM PST
Go slide by slide with Matviy Kruglov, UC Berkeley SkyDeck Fund.
Learn how to craft a deck that tells your story — not just shows data — and turns investor attention into funding.
💡 In this session, you’ll learn:
• What every slide must include (and what to cut — even if it hurts)
• How to structure your deck so it flows like a story investors remember
• The visual and logical flow that makes investors say “yes”
❗Bonus for founders:
Submit your deck when registering — and you might be selected for a live review and feedback during the session.
