SUMMARY:CTL New Ventures Series – Pitching 101: How to Present Your Startups and Technology Innovation to Potential Funders
DESCRIPTION:Back by popular demand for CTL’s New Ventures Series this fall\, Kirsten Leute and Ajay Rayasam at Osage University Partners (OUP) focus the session on how an entrepreneur\, or a faculty-entrepreneur\, can develop and deliver a pitch to gain interest and commitment from potential investors. \nPitching an early-stage science- and technology-based startup to potential funders can be intimidating. Learning how to tailor your presentation and understanding what motivates funders to say yes\, or at least not give you an outright no\, are important aspects of preparing for your initial pitch. This talk is structured around OUP’s many years of experience in hearing pitches and reviewing pitch decks to provide insight on creating and presenting an initial startup pitch to funders. \nSpeakers: \n\nKirsten Leute\, Partner at OUP\nAjay Rayasam\, M.S.\, Associate\, Technology\, OUP\n\n  \nRegister here!

SUMMARY:Ask a VC webinar
DESCRIPTION:Have a burning question on venture capital you need answered? Join OUP for our third annual ‘Ask a VC’ webinar\, a session where our partner TTOs can ask Managing Partners Marc Singer and Bill Harrington anything and everything about venture capital operations\, decision-making\, and the current investing environment. \n  \nSince this webinar aims to answer your questions on venture capital and startups\, submit your questions early. Query areas could include:\n• What should startups look for in their lead investors?\n• What are ‘standard’ investment terms these days for startups? Does this vary by Seed vs. Series A?\n• What are the common misconceptions you find that faculty members have about being a company founder?\n• What does a well-known PI typically receive for founder’s equity?\n• How do SPACs work\, and what could they mean for university startups?\n• What do you find are common misconceptions TTOs have about venture capital?\n• What funding sources most commonly lead to a startup having a later successful venture capital financing round? \n  \nMarc and Bill will also take questions from the audience on the day of the webinar but sending your questions in advance will put them at the top of the queue. \n  \nThis webinar is free to all of OUP’s academic institution partners. Register here. \n  \n  \nPanelists:
