AMA with Charles Hudson
About the Session
Everyone’s trying to raise. Few actually know how to get a yes.
We’re bringing in Charles Hudson, Managing Partner at Precursor Ventures (375+ startups backed), for an exclusive AMA on what really gets early-stage founders funded.
We’ll cover:
– What makes investors actually lean in
– How to stand out when you’re pre-revenue or pre-traction
– Why great ideas still get a “no” and how to avoid it
– What makes a pitch memorable (for the right reasons)
If you’re a founder planning to raise, this is the room to be in. Zero filters. Real talk. Hard truths. Tactical insights from one of the most respected early-stage VCs in the game.
