Fund Your Business Your Way: Pitching 101

An interactive pitching workshop from the NatWest Accelerator's Bristol hub, aimed at founders about to go out for funding. The session treats a pitch as storytelling rather than a deck: how to structure it, what makes a story stick, and what an investor is listening for.

You pitch on the day and get feedback in the room, and the organisers work in the neuroscience of memory alongside examples from founders who have reworked their own messaging. Speaker names had not been published at the time of writing. Free, 10:00 to 12:30 at the Accelerator Hub on Avon Street. Attendees are asked to download the NatWest Accelerator app and join its Funding Group first.

Why go: practising the pitch in front of people who hear them professionally beats rehearsing alone, and this is the free session in Bristol this month that gives you the floor. Best for first-time founders heading into a raise.
