I'm loving every moment of our Equity Angels accelerator journey. Our founders are such a joy to work with (Pierre Calzadilla, Mukund Venkatakrishnan, Nicole McGuire, Amber Kahr, Andrew Becker and Diana Zaya) PLUS every week, we are fortunate enough to have access to subject matter experts who really know their stuff 🚀 This week we had the opportunity to learn from editorial communications pros Alysha Light and Craig Rowe on the ins and outs of earned media. Top three takeaways from our crash course: 👉🏽 Journalists don’t work for you. 👉🏽 Handle the silence. You don’t need to fill the void. 👉🏽 There’s no such thing as “off the record”! Within one hour, we all gained a better perspective on how to effectively communicate and build authentic relationships with the media and so much more! Can't believe we only have 10 weeks left of our accelerator program. Looking forward to every session and grateful to all our program mentors and advisors 🙏🏽 🙏🏽 🙏🏽 #accelerator #leadingwithequity #proptech #startups #founders #diversity #equity #inclusion #PR #communications

Behind the scenes at #Elevate2024 - speaking at the biggest tech conference in Canada re: #VentureCapital investing in deep-tech. Joined by Janet Bannister (Staircase Ventures), Eva Lau (Two Small Fish Ventures), Chris Neumann (Panache Ventures), we covered: - what types of companies are exciting to VCs (hint: moonshots), - specialist vs. generalist VC funds (founders: while it’s wonderful to meet a specialist VC that knows your domain really well, that is currently the exception, not the norm - so the art of telling your story to a broader investor base is crucial) - how VCs construct their portfolio to meet LP expectations (as a founder, you need to understand what motivates the investors you’re interacting with) Glad Creative Destruction Lab assembled this epic panel on the Moonshots stage !
