SUMMARY:Portland\, ME - Startup Pitch Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Join Startup Maine\, Northeastern University’s Roux Institute and What VCs Won’t Say for the Startup Pitch Workshop\nRaising capital isn’t just about your pitch deck or your traction\, it’s about how you show up. Your communication. Your strategy. The psychology behind why investors say yes\, no\, or “let’s reconnect in a few months.”\nIn this five-hour interactive workshop\, Clarence Bethea shares the fundraising lessons founders rarely hear but every entrepreneur needs to know.\nYou’ll learn how to craft a pitch that resonates\, communicate like a founder investors want to back\, and navigate the emotional\, mental\, and interpersonal side of fundraising. We’ll unpack what investors are really thinking during your meeting\, how they evaluate founders beyond the numbers\, and the signals they’re watching for\, both good and bad.\nThis isn’t theory. It’s the framework Clarence used to raise more than $30 million as a founder and the perspective he brings as an investor evaluating hundreds of startups. He’s also coached founders who have collectively raised more than $100 million in venture capital.\nExpect a highly interactive experience filled with real-world examples\, hands-on exercises\, and actionable feedback you can apply immediately. You’ll leave with greater confidence\, a stronger pitch\, and a clearer understanding of how to position yourself for investor conversations.\nIf you’re serious about raising capital and ready to elevate how you pitch\, communicate\, and lead\, this workshop is for you.\nRegistration includes:\nFive-hour live workshop\nLunch\nOne year of access to the What VCs Won’t Say course (a $399 value)\nSeats are limited.\nBy registering for this event\, you consent to What VCs Won’t Say sharing your name and email address with the event’s Lead Sponsor.
