​Fundraising isn’t just about pitching — it’s about precision, pacing, and storytelling that earns investor conviction.

​In this hands-on workshop, startup founders will learn how to run their fundraising process like a pro, from the first investor meeting to closing the round with confidence and control.

​Through practical frameworks, real-world examples, and guided exercises, you’ll learn how to navigate each stage of the fundraising journey:

• ​Running your fundraise process like a sales funnel

• ​Handling tough investor questions with composure

• ​Structuring your story for clarity, emotion, and traction

​This session is designed to help founders move from reactive fundraising to strategic execution — transforming meetings into momentum.
