I work with Inventors and R&D teams to secure their first or next significant cash-generating transaction, such as capital, licensing, distribution, or a trade sale.
Hi Innovators!
I just released the next short video explainer about our Inventors Academy 2023 program.?
What most people can’t understand about raising funds is how we can do it in 4 pitches or less, with none of them taking more than 20 minutes, and using just 12 slides in our pitch deck!
There is a secret, which I will share with you today. Part of the magic includes the way we select our target prospective investors, how we qualify them, and then – most importantly - what we DON’T pitch to them.
The five core principles we cover in our pitch are (1) the deal, (2) the commercial model, (3) the leverages, (4) the risks, and (5) the exit. We don’t pitch the team, the product, the patenting, what we have spent so far, or how lousy our competitors are.
