Remember those 15 Korean startups who wowed the crowds at Bits & Pretzels last week? These startups, part of the KISED (Korea Institute of Startup & Entrepreneurship Development) and Korea Agriculture Technology Promotion Agency (#KOAT), Global Market Expansion Program (#GMEP), delivered impressive one-minute pitches at #Bits24 to introduce their innovative ideas. If you were there, you couldn't have missed their exceptional ability to: ✅ Adapt their pitches to the one-minute time constraint. ✅ Maintain a confident and engaging presence. Did you know that their public speaking skills were further honed through intensive pitch training as part of their first GMEP program-related workshops in Munich? Well this particular workshop focused on: ✔️ Controlling the pace of speech to emphasize key points. ✔️ Adapting content based on questions from the other participants. ✔️ Giving self-feedback by analyzing their own presentations. ✔️ Receiving expert feedback from resident Start2 Group expert Thomas Hohenacker, on how to better engage and persuade investors. The reviews were overwhelmingly positive, as many found the training extremely helpful, and useful in the context of the European market and pitching expectations. Got a presentation coming up? Elevate your public speaking skills with these essential strategies: 💡 Practice Makes Perfect: The more you rehearse, the more confident and natural you'll become. 💡 Know Your Audience: Tailor your message to their interests, needs, and level of understanding. 💡 Tell Compelling Stories: Engage your audience emotionally and make your message memorable. 💡 Show Genuine Passion: Your enthusiasm will inspire and connect with your listeners. 💡 Master Body Language: Use your gestures and facial expressions to reinforce your message and maintain audience engagement. 💡 Anticipate Questions: Prepare thoughtful answers to potential questions to demonstrate your knowledge and expertise. Good luck....👍 and stay tuned for more on what these dynamic #GMEP startups are up to! .... 주식회사 반달소프트(VANDALSOFT) Petnow Inc. ROBOS CO.,LTD everything but..

Ready to Stand Out in Your Accelerator Program Application? 🚀 Our partners at the MPF-Accelerator Program have shared 5 must-know tips for creating a powerful application deck that gets noticed. 🔑 Start with Structure Create a logical and engaging flow that guides the reader from start to finish. Your deck should tell a story that’s clear and impactful, even when you’re not there to explain it. 💡 Make it Simple, Make it Memorable Break down your technology so anyone can understand. Use simple analogies to make your innovation relatable and highlight the real-world impact it offers. 🎨 Prioritize Visual Appeal Design slides that are both informative and visually captivating. Remember, a compelling image can communicate more effectively than text-heavy slides. 🌟 Emphasize Your Unique Edge Clearly showcase the specific problem your solution addresses and why it outshines the competition. Make your unique value stand out. 👥 Showcase Your Team and Vision Put the spotlight on your team’s expertise and your startup’s potential. Illustrate how joining the accelerator program aligns with your growth plans and long-term vision. Last but not least: Your deck needs to make a strong impression on its own. Each slide should reinforce your core message without the need for verbal explanation. PS: Applications are now open for the MPF Accelerator Program – Batch # 2. Apply here: https://lnkd.in/e3Dc3S7D --- The accelerator is hosted by the MPF Start-up Accelerator GmbH that is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Max-Planck-Förderstiftung
