Want Funding? Build a Winning Deck and Pitch Live

Sign up here.

Join us for an empowering session designed specifically for women entrepreneurs who want to make a lasting impression, whether you're speaking to future investors, teammates, partners, or early supporters.

​A well-crafted pitch doesn’t just explain your business — it opens doors, builds belief, and invites people into your vision.

​In this tactical, beginner-friendly virtual workshop, startup mentor and advocate Bing Li (ex-Berkeley SkyDeck, ex–Agora) will guide you through crafting a clear, compelling pitch and story, no matter how early or scrappy your stage. With deep experience mentoring founders, curating global showcases, and supporting early-stage teams, Bing brings real-world insight into what makes a pitch resonate, especially in investor conversations, where clarity, traction, and narrative flow can make all the difference. 

This time, we’re going beyond the slides.
The session will begin with a live teaching segment covering the fundamentals of strong, early-stage pitches. Then, a few founders will pitch live — each with a 5-minute spotlight — followed by real-time feedback. Whether you’re pitching or listening in, you’ll gain actionable insights on sharpening your story and making your message land.
