Greed vs. Fear: What Investors Really Think When You Pitch
Details
Last week we went deep on AI for CTOs. This week: the other half of the game — money.
Greed vs. Fear is a 1-hour synopsis of the 18-hour credit course San Eng used to teach at Shanghai JiaoTong University — a shortened version he has also given at CEIBS, the University of Toronto, and other top business schools.
San has deployed $500 million as an institutional investor and raised $200 million as an entrepreneur — he has sat on both sides of the table.
This talk covers both sides:
SELL — how entrepreneurs use fear and greed to attract capital — and overcome investor fear by showing where the profits come from
BUY — how investors think — the fear of losing capital, and what makes them say yes
If you're building something and want to know what investors really think when you pitch, this hour is for you.
