So You Want to Pitch&reg\; 2.0 helps established entrepreneurs use actual business performance to make the case for what comes next. Participants explore what funders look for beyond the first raise\, how to demonstrate traction and growth\, determine how much capital they really need\, and identify the right funding strategy. The session challenges entrepreneurs to answer: What did you do with the money\, what changed\, and what can you accomplish with more? Funding Beyond the Pitch: Finding the Money to Move Your Business Forward You&rsquo\;ve learned how to make the pitch\, now\, how do you fund what&rsquo\;s next? Funding Beyond the Pitch uses the So You Want to Pitch&reg\; framework to help entrepreneurs navigate today&rsquo\;s funding landscape and explore various types of pitch competitions\, grants\, loans\, investors\, crowdfunding\, customers\, partnerships\, and bootstrapping.
