Presenting to Capital Angels
During each screening session you will have 5 minutes to make a presentation followed by 5 minutes of Q&A. We generally hold the Q&A after you're finished making your presentation.
We will provide you with an LCD projector.
You must bring your own laptop. Set its display resolution to 800x600 and have your presentation loaded and ready when it is your turn to present.
Internet access may be available but we cannot guarantee it, so do not depend on it to make your presentation.
In the interest of time, we may ask you to disconnect your laptop from the projector during the Q&A portion of your presentation to let the next presenting company set up.
We usually have 5 to 10 members in attendance at each screening session, so please bring a minimum of 10 copies of the following materials to each session:
- 1. CA Funding Application as submitted online by you (print application)
- Executive Summary
- PowerPoint Slides (print three slides per page)
- Full Business Plan (2 to 3 copies)
PowerPoint slideshow.
Slideshows with approximately 10-12 slides are generally most effective. Use the limited time you have to make your presentation to emphasize the compelling factors about your investment opportunity and save unnecessary technology details for future meetings. We recommend the following slides for your presentation:
- Market Need and Business Model -- Most Important!
- Industry and Market Overview
- Product or Service Overview
- Technology (Current & Future)
- Competition
- Competitive Advantages
- Strategic Partners
- Management Team
- Benchmarks for Growth or Additional Funding
- Funding Sought, Valuation, Use of Funds, Comparables
- Financial Projection
