Own the Moment Webinar
Special offer for Accelerators
Offer your Female Founders something unique:
"Pitch to Male Investors using Gender Awareness"
Accelerators are key partners to startups. You help kick-start their ventures, put them on the right path and often invest in them. Yet, all accelerators find that fewer women entrepreneurs apply to their programs, even when you have a Female Founder focus. And the hard truth is, it IS harder for women entrepreneurs to get funding.
Differentiate yourself. Offer your woman-led startups something unique!
Why this Webinar?
The world of investing today is still very male-dominated. Men are comfortable in this environment because it’s modeled after the way men naturally think and act. Even the 10-minute pitch mirrors men’s instincts and is designed around how men prefer to communicate and evaluate startups.
“Men tend not to multi-think as women do or blend facts with intuition as easily. Men tend to tunnel-think, following straight lines of reasoning and one track of conversation at a time."
“When you’re pitching, you want to get inside that tunnel and the investor’s stream of focused thought. There are ways that you can do that and make the 10-minute pitch work for you.”
— John Fayad, Gender Specialist
Your Female Founders will:
- Have a working knowledge of the neuroscience that underlies gender differences and how those differences show themselves in our professional and personal lives
- Understand the source of male investors’ blind spots and prevalent tendencies—much of which is unconscious and unintentional—and use that knowledge to their benefit.
- Understand the source of women entrepreneurs’ blind spots and how women often hold themselves back by misreading the behaviors and intentions of male investors.
- Significantly expand their toolset of practical tips on how to best pitch to male investors—from slide content to communication techniques, including body language.
What participants are saying:
"I really enjoyed the last 20 mins as this content was most practical and relevant (for my personality type) and while some material wasn't new to me, I felt like it was delivered really well and I was taking notes for myself as reminders of best practise."
- Eoghan Stack, Chief Executive, DCU Ryan Academy Accelerator
