Description
TechCrunch Live records weekly, live, each Wednesday at 3:00pm EDT / 12:00pm PDT. Forethought AI won Startup Battlefield at TechCrunch Disrupt 2018. Since then, the company raised two rounds of funding and is now a leader in human-centric artificial intelligence. During this live event, Dean Nicholas, CEO and co-founder of Forethought, and Vanessa Larco, NEA partner and Forethought board observer, talked through the company's early days. The two talked in depth about how Forethought launched its AI-based service amid stiff competition and a booming tech industry. Nicholas shared the pitch deck that helped the company win Startup Battlefield. He admits: the deck's design isn't pretty, but it worked in part because of several key slides around traction and partners.Register for future TechCrunch Live events, and watch past events here.

In this episode, learn the strategies he used to pitch without a deck, and hear about the deck A16z used to pitch itself to Deel. by The TechCrunch Live Podcast
