Whatever the reason to pitch, we can learn from the ways startups approach pitching. 3 Day Startup (3DS) will present a session at Capital Factory, located in Austin's downtown innovation zone. You will discover how the startup approach to pitching can be useful in corporate and other contexts. Drawing on the ideas presented, you will then create, deliver, and receive feedback on your pitch.
