Augment with powerpoint, videos, anything is fair game.DO: 6 Minutes to present 4 Minute Q&A -Outline the problem you set out to solve -Show as much of a demo as you can to solve that problem -Discuss what your revenue model is (one simple slide is enough) -Keep it interesting, get the audience excited about your solution. Avoid: -Text heavy slides -Going over time -Rambling on
24. After the Weekend Some teams DIE, some raise angel and VC investment. -Keep meeting and working on the project. -For teams that have a viable product worry about equity down the road. -I advise teams to set goals and a time horizon to distribute equity in the future. For example our business developers will be responsible for making a business plan in the next month). -After the weekend the work is just beginning. -Keep in touch on other projects.
