More Information on Prep4Seed

 

Prep4Seed consists of four Masterclasses which are practical and specific in content with inputs from successful startups. Prep4Seed takes a tailored approach with the opportunity for regular 1-2-1 reviews, which ensures content from the Masterclasses is applied in a relevant way to each company.

The six 1-2-1s and tailored client-led bespoke one-to-one activity with the experienced BIC consultants differentiate Prep4Seed from other programmes. Individual, tailored company focus – for which the BICs are well known, brings these startup clients through the investor readiness process quickly and effectively.

Participants are given an opportunity for an investor pitch preparation session and trial pitches. The trial pitches and feedback ensures the promoter focuses the pitch on what investors want. An Investor Day – gathering Ireland’s top pre-seed and seed investors –  is a considerable incentive for companies to participate and focuses the participants on the end goal, instills confidence in the founders and opens doors for future conversations with investors.
