Why This Session Is Different
Real numbers and real mistakes — not sanitised success stories
Seven vantage points: funding, finance, marketing, brand, valuation, experience.
Ask the questions you can't ask in a pitch meeting or boardroom
Perspectives from startups and big business exits, what funds look for and the challenges in between
Walk away with what's actually working today — not last year's playbook
Who Should Attend
Business Owners & Founders
Anyone Raising or Managing Money
Entrepreneurs Feeling Stuck
Anyone Deciding Whether to Start
Business is hard. Employment is also hard. Choose your hard.
