A free workshop aimed at empowering under-recognised founders to overcome bias in fundraising by providing research-backed strategies to reframe investor conversations and secure funding.
The wonderful people at Female Founder Rise are putting on a free workshop with Emma Rees.
Drawing on expertise from conversation science as well as promotion vs. prevention bias research, this interactive session aims to provide actionable insights for reframing investor interactions, mastering responses, and ultimately securing funding. Participants will learn to identify bias in investor meetings, redirect conversations to highlight opportunities, and confidently address concerns. The workshop blends research, real-world examples, and hands-on exercises, ensuring attendees leave with practical frameworks ready for immediate application.
This workshop is ideally suited for founders from diverse backgrounds and under-represented groups who have faced or anticipate facing bias in their fundraising journey. Whether preparing for a funding round, refining their pitch, or seeking to improve investor conversations, participants will gain invaluable skills to take control of their fundraising process. By understanding and addressing the nuances of unconscious bias, attendees will be empowered to confidently present their vision and secure the investment needed to propel their startups forward.
