👉 @Kaunastic Startup Meetup #7 at Kaunas University of Technology! 🎙 Andrius Milinavicius shared valuable insights on approaching investors for Startup Fair. From booking meetings to the right pitch moment and investor strategies, he covered it all! 🙌 Big thanks to Kaunas University of Technology and Kaunas IN for their collaboration! Stay tuned!

What's the secret to a perfect pitch? It's all about leaving your audience eager to learn more — and no one knows this better than Nick Hughes, the founder and CEO of Founders Live, who joined us in our latest Roadmap episode. Founders Live started as a simple 99-second pitch competition in Seattle and grew into a global startup ecosystem connecting early-stage startups from 50 countries with potential investors. So it's safe to say Nick knows a thing or two about pitches. In our chat, we also talked about: ➡ What's the biggest difference between American and European founders? ➡ What should you avoid when pitching? ➡ What's the best way to open a pitch?
