At the end, ask if they have any advice on how today's pitch went. I've often found that what they say at this point is key for the next pitch.

@elly_cho Good advice, thank you! :D

@nuno_ms_reis I hope I'm not writing this message too late.
Nuno Reis
@elly_cho you are not. It went very well, and now let's see ;)

Don't take the outcome too seriously :) I've realized that fundraising is basically just match-making. It's not about being the best or convincing someone else that you're valuable - it's about finding the right VC. The right VC = VC that invests in your stage (so not too early and not too late), has an interest in your sector and is founder-friendly. If you check all of those boxes, and you're prepared - you'll be fine! Good luck buddy!

@adithya_narayanan1 I guess it is only the first of many. Thanks for the encouragement ;)
