Episode Synopsis

🎙️ Episode 6 is live! This time we sit down with Sebastian Harris — multi-time entrepreneur, impact-focused fund manager, and former nonprofit leader whose journey has taken him from peacebuilding in the Middle East to leading a company from inception to IPO.If you’re fundraising or preparing for an exit, this episode is packed with practical, founder-tested advice.What do we cover?1. Make your narrative investor-first. Most founders over-index on their own effort or product quality. Investors care about returns, risk, and the path to liquidity. Your story matters — but only if it answers the investor’s questions.2. Speed is a filter. Investors use time as a screening tool. If your materials don’t create urgency and clarity in the first pass, you’re unlikely to get a second look. Short, sharp deliverables give you a competitive edge.3. Execution beats theory. Great teams can salvage bad ideas; bad teams can ruin great ones. Leadership clarity and adaptability inspire far more investor confidence than market size alone.🎧 Tune in for insights that will help you cut through the noise and approach investors with clarity, urgency, and confidence.
