This is a remix of tips and advice from David S. Rose's presentations on how to pitch to a VC for money. These slides are not designed to be a stand alone presentation. The design of the slides is experimental and are not the actual slides used by David S. Rose in his presentations to entrepreneurs. Do not adjust your computer -- the display type (Carbontype) is suppose to look that way (whether that is good or bad -- effective or lame -- is another issue all together). Watch David's excellent talk on the TED website: http://www.ted.com/index.php/talks/david_s_rose_on_pitching_to_vcs.html About David S. Rose http://www.ted.com/index.php/speakers/david_s_rose.html
