How to read into investor rejections

Most founders take rejections at face value — and miss the signal hidden inside them. The way an investor says no, when they say it, and what they say after tells you more about your fundraise than most feedback ever will. In this session, two experienced investors break down how to decode rejections and what to do with them — what investors are actually communicating when they pass, how to extract useful information from it, and how to use that data to sharpen your pitch, improve your targeting, and turn a no into a future yes.

There'll be time for Q&A at the end. Most useful for founders currently in a fundraising process or preparing to go out.
