- Be sure you have the data and traction to support your company's valuation during negotiations.
- Investors aren't experts in everything — keep jargon out of your pitch.
Welcome to Entrepreneur Elevator Pitch, the heart-racing show in which contestants looking to uplift their lives must convince our board of elite investors that their dreams are worth making a reality — in only 60 seconds.
In this episode, app makers, gaming founders and health entrepreneurs all step inside our elevator and pitch their companies as a countdown clock ticks away their precious time. Watch to see who wows the board members and gets their shot at winning a life-changing investment — and who gets sent back down with nothing but a valuable lesson on the importance of preparation.
