Mastering the pitch deck

Pitches are critical in the quest for funding and first customers. It’s rare, however, for innovators to get truly candid insight on their pitches before stepping in front of VCs. At TC Early Stage, founders will get to pitch in front of an expert panel of judges and secure essential insight before you step up to bat. The investors will offer live feedback on your pitch structure, content, solution and presentation. Three founders will be selected to give a two-minute elevator pitch while three founders will be selected to give a four-minute pitch with a deck. Founders who apply for the TC Early Stage Pitch Deck Teardown will automatically be considered for the Startup Battlefield competition at TechCrunch Disrupt, this September, in San Francisco.

Without further ado, here are your judges for the TC Early Stage Pitch Deck Teardown.
