Startup Pitch Workshop with Clarence Bethea

Join Startup Maine, What VCs Won’t Say & The Roux Institute at Northeastern University for a five-hour interactive Startup Pitch Workshop.

Register for the workshop here.

In this workshop, Clarence Bethea will share the fundraising lessons founders rarely hear but every entrepreneur needs to know. ​You’ll learn how to craft a pitch that resonates, communicate like a founder investors want to back, and navigate the emotional, mental, and interpersonal side of fundraising. We’ll unpack what investors are really thinking during your meeting, how they evaluate founders beyond the numbers, and the signals they’re watching for, both good and bad.

​Expect a highly interactive experience filled with real-world examples, hands-on exercises, and actionable feedback you can apply immediately. You’ll leave with greater confidence, a stronger pitch, and a clearer understanding of how to position yourself for investor conversations.

​If you’re serious about raising capital and ready to elevate how you pitch, communicate, and lead, this workshop is for you.

​Registration includes:

• Five-hour live workshop
• Lunch
• One year of access to the What VCs Won’t Say course (a $399 value)
