What an awesome evening to discuss the dreaded elevator pitch and a huge applause for our founders who were willing to be vulnerable and receive feedback real-time in front of an audience. Great job to Jeremy Kimmel, Dylan Lew, EIT, and Olivia Suchko for your amazing pitches filled with passion and expertise. Can’t wait to see them again in the fall at 3 Rivers Venture Fair 👏🏻 A few takeaways from the panel included: 👍🏻 limit your description of the problem space. VCs are very familiar with problem spaces and it isn’t necessary to commit precious time over-explaining the need 👍🏻 when promoting the management team, go beyond the roles and include any tangible successes and outcomes they’ve had (individually or collectively). This builds credibility 👍🏻 always include mention of any IP 👍🏻 connect your market TAM, SAM and SOM. Hearing a TAM of $10B does nothing alone. Expand by explaining what portion of the TAM you can service and your GTM entry points 👍🏻 always include numbers to support your statements. For example instead of “we are cheaper than the current solution”, provide the amount or percentage savings and why that matters to the buyer.

The seed investing landscape is on the brink of significant transformation in the years ahead, driven by a confluence of factors that collectively point toward the waning participation of large investors and a decline in seed deal metrics. The responsibility for sustaining seed deal activity will increasingly fall upon smaller investors, which, until now, have had the necessary capital to support startups at progressively higher deal sizes and valuations. However, as their available dry powder dwindles, raising new funds becomes more challenging, and value creation between Seed and Series A startups continues to erode, investors will prompt a recalibration of seed deal metrics to align with their diversification and return objectives. We can anticipate that seed deal metrics will hit a plateau in the coming quarters and eventually exhibit signs of decline toward the latter part of 2024 https://lnkd.in/ejJEq5yK
