Day 61 - End of week 9

Refining our Pitch

Today began with pitch training, presenting a challenge as Kendal had to stay home to care for sick children. This meant she had to deliver the presentation remotely, and we couldn't rehearse beforehand.

Unfortunately, this lack of preparation showed during the session. We struggled to coordinate the slides and ended up going significantly over time, resulting in being cut off. However, the feedback from others was invaluable. They pinpointed areas that were still unclear, allowing us to address them before the final pre-IC pitch next Tuesday. It's unfortunate that Kendal couldn't participate in these discussions, as they were some of the most beneficial yet. Overall, the quality of our presentations has significantly improved, making it easier to identify weaknesses in each other's pitches. I'm truly impressed by how much we've all progressed since we started a few weeks ago.

Wrapping Up the Week

At the end of the day, Antler hosted the weekly town hall. As we near the finish line, the pressure is increasing. Those who aren't part of a team yet may miss the opportunity to pitch unless they can join an existing team at the last minute. Additionally, we received information on when to return our keys, solidifying how close we are to the decision on whether we'll receive an investment and continue working with Antler.
