Join us as we sit down with seasoned investor and healthcare leader Jeff Berman for a candid, data-driven look at how investors really evaluate founders — and what separates the startups that get funded from those that don’t.
After reviewing 200+ company pitches & evaluations, Jeff has seen every version of the “next big thing.” Now he’s sharing what works, what fails, and how founders can build their fundraising advantage in one of the toughest capital markets in years.

Moderated by Leah Villegas, Co-Founder of Aquillius, this live discussion will uncover the investor mindset, highlight key founder blind spots, and preview how Big Tree’s new Start Up Academy helps founders close those critical gaps.
