Why this workshop:

Our experience of having worked directly with investors over the years reveals that when they are listening to an idea or an entrepreneur, what gives them conviction of investing money into the company, or even believing in the product has more to do with the passion and confidence of the entrepreneur, rather than numbers and business plan alone. The questions then are,

• Does the entrepreneur know how to project the right amount of confidence while presenting?
• Does he know what whether he is getting through to the investor / client?
• Has he attempted to understand how he behaves under stress?
