Why Your Pitch Deck Doesn’t Work

Most pitch decks fail not because the business idea is weak, but because the narrative is broken. This 60- minute online panel workshop moves beyond “pretty slides” to conduct a live autopsy of the modern pitch.

Using the gold-standard pitch deck framework, we will deconstruct the common friction points that cause investors and customers to tune out or turn off. This discussion will feature  successful entrepreneurs and accelerator leads, who will help you from your initial “hook” to your final “ask.” Don’t miss this  opportunity to transform your pitch from a technical manual to a fundable story.

Who Should Join:

• Founders
• Student Competitors
• Technical Leads (i.e., Patents to Product, NSF I-Corp, etc.)

Speakers:

• Whitney Hardy, Director | Crews Center for Entrepreneurship
• Olaf Schulz, Director of Zeroto510 | Epicenter
• Kris Talley, Founder and CEO | Logo Brands
