Wharton Club Of DC

Kickoff of New Wharton DC Innovation & Entrepreneurship Forum!

How to Open Doors to Funding With an Effective Executive Summary. Join Startup/Scale-up Expert Ines LeBow, CEO of Enterprise Transformation Solutions (ETS). All welcome.

• If you are looking to get funded by investors or even take out a loan, you probably already know you need a pitch deck and a business plan. But many entrepreneurs overlook the importance of having a tightly-written effective, even compelling Executive Summary. 
• An Executive Summary is often the first document investors and lenders want to see before a complete pitch deck and business plan. It can be the key to opening more doors if it leads to funders seeking to learn more! If it is done poorly, no matter how promising your venture or your team, doors to the funds you need may remain locked tight.
• 
• Join start-up/scale-up expert Ines LeBow, CEO of Enterprise Transformation Solutions (ETS), for this valuable seminar on how to write an effective Executive Summary.
  • She'll tell you what 10 key topics you need to include to dramatically improve your odds of success as you go through the fundraising process.
• You often only get one shot in front of potential investors, so make sure your Executive Summary is enticing enough for investors to want to take the next step! If you are an entrepreneur looking 
•  for funding, you need to attend this event.
