Presenting to Allegis

You have about one hour to convince us that you have a great business. Try to achieve the following in your presentation:

The Audience: Investors not customers

• Build Interest: How do investors win?
• Build Credibility: Domain Knowledge
• Be Open & Transparent
• Show your Passion & Vision
• Be someone people want to be involved with

What we look for:

• Experienced Management: Vision & Leadership
• Financeable: CEO can fundraise
• Compelling Market: A new idea
• Sense of Urgency: Desire, energy, adaptability, flexibility
• Strategic Focus: Focus, Focus, Focus
• Protectable Business: "Secret sauce"
• Exit Strategy: How do investors make money?

VCs should add value:

• Get the best VC you can find
• Instant Credibility
• They should have a good rolodex and share it with you
• They should be coaches, not players
