Pitching for Funding
Those with funding need to know about you and why they should place their investment in you and your venture. This may be a pitch for research funds, a pitch in an enterprise competition or a presentation asking for an R & D budget. It is a skill that is much needed for the next career step.
This interactive course will use your research as a starting point but feel free to come with a business venture idea too.

This course will cover:
* The structure and elements of a pitch
* What different funders are looking for in a pitch
* Opening and closing your pitch
* Team pitching
* The use of props
* Making your message clear

Objectives: by the end of this session participants will have:
* Practised a variety of pitch elements
* Thought about the audience and meeting their needs
* Explored the structure and elements of a pitch
* Received feedback
