Pitch Perfect: Crafting Winning Life Science Decks that Capture Investors
Life science innovation requires more than great science—it demands clear, credible communication that inspires confidence and investment. In this BioArbor session, experts in venture capital, startup development, and entrepreneurship will break down the anatomy of an effective pitch deck. Learn how to translate technical breakthroughs into market-ready narratives, identify key metrics investors want to see, tailor your pitch to different audiences, and deliver your story with authenticity, confidence and impact. Attendees will gain actionable insights to elevate both their decks and their delivery, setting the stage for successful funding conversations. A sampling of pre-submitted company pitch decks will be reviewed and critiqued by the panel in real time.
