Get ready to showcase your talents at “So You Think You Can Pitch,” the highly anticipated segment at the 2024 edition of TechCrunch Early Stage! This exciting event is taking place on April 25 in the vibrant city of Boston, and you do not want to miss out on this opportunity. Pitching is a crucial aspect in securing funding and attracting early customers, yet receiving honest feedback before facing investors can be quite rare. However, at TC Early Stage, three fortunate founders will get the chance to present their pitch decks for four minutes each in front of a panel of expert judges. This experience will provide invaluable insights to help refine their approach. Previous panelists have come from prestigious firms such as Building Ventures, 1Sharpe Ventures, Emergence Capital, and more!
