7. The competition
Describe who your competitors are and what your

ff
erent way or not

able to succeed with this project or company.
If the team is all there when presenting you should
already have presented yourself in the beginning.

to make this a reality.

10. Current status and timeline
Describe where you are now and what you think are the
next steps to make this come true.

11. End goal or exit strategy
If this is a presentation for investors you can tell them
how you plan on making them money. If its an internal
presentation you can state the end goal of what you are
doing on this slide.
Example: SpaceX
The ultimate goal of enabling people to live on other
planets.

12. Thank you!
This can be a good place to give your contact info and if
you present it live see if there are any questions.
