Short talk about presentations given at Startup Dynamo, a workshop held by Startup@Singapore NUS using the Learn Startup Methodology. My segment was on Presentation Design to make an impact on VCs. Many thanks to @ryanlou for the invite. And not to forget Emiland De Cubber for his amazing slide deck inspirations and invaluable advice. Disclaimer: this is a reimagination off some of Emiland's presentations. I do not make any money of this.
