Jak najlepiej zaprezentować startup — schemat optymalnego startup pitch

W artykule opisano formy finansowania startupów i specyfikę startup pitch (prezentacji startupu). Przedstawiono różne definicje i koncepcje pitch oraz ich cel. Sporządzono zestawienie proponowanej struktury pitch według literatury przedmiotu oraz przeanalizowano wystąpienia 10 startupów podczas konkursu startupowego Wolves Summit w 2020 roku pod kątem struktury pitch. Bazując na badaniach oraz własnych doświadczeniach autorzy opracowali schemat pytań, jakimi kieruje się inwestor venture capital oceniając potencjał startupu, oraz zaproponowali schemat optymalnego startup pitch wraz z uzasadnieniem roli jaką pełnią poszczególne jego elementy.
