Chris used a data-driven model to demonstrate successful pitching techniques. As a result, multiple graduating startups from the program received VC funding.
We were acquired by a Fortune 100 company in a HIGH eight-figure deal. It was a brutal series of pitches, and Chris was critical to our success.

“Chris’s presentation on pitching was very valuable to our audience, academic environmental scientists. As one participant related, “Focus on you, not I (which is what academics often do!)”
– Margaret Krebs, Program Manager of Leopold Leadership Program
“Chris created a highly interactive session working on the key skills people must consider when attempting to convince an audience to act. Not only does Chris foster a mastery of the skills, but he does so in a manner that allows his students to have fun while practicing the craft.”
– Steve Siegel, Director of Silicon Valley Program at Claremont McKenna College
