Founders
Pitch with Confidence: Mindset, Presence and Performance
Hosted by SETsquared Bristol
about this room
A two-hour practical workshop on pitch delivery rather than pitch content: presence and poise, using your voice, managing nerves, and preparing mentally and physically before you stand up.
Led by Amy Armstrong, an award-winning leadership and resilience coach and senior clinical hypnotherapist, for SETsquared Bristol. It is built around the six Ps of compelling pitching, with time to practise, reflect and take feedback in the room. 14:00 to 16:00 on Tuesday 20 October. It is designed to complement SETsquared's separate Elevator Pitch workshop, which covers structure and content.
Free, in person at the Sloane Robinson Building, Cattlemarket Road, BS1 6AZ. The registration page states no membership requirement or eligibility gate.
delivery is the part of pitching most founders skip and the part an audience reacts to first. Go if you have something real coming up, a demo day, an investor meeting or a first sales conversation, and you know nerves get in your way.
