By the end of this guided project, you will be able to use the Pitch Canvas to make adequate preparation for your startup funding pitch. The Pitch Canvas is an entrepreneurial brainstorming framework that help you to structure and visualize your pitch in one page. The canvas is most effective for pitch preparation that is not more than 10 minutes. The goal is to highlight the key factor of your business plan while leaving the details to the subsequent meeting that might require extensive pitch. The canvas helps you to focus on the important point by convincing the investors that your business is worth investing in, and also to prepare for questions they might likely asked. For us to practically demonstrate the application of the Canvas for pitch preparation, we will use a Fintech startup company as a case study to conduct the analysis. Example of the case study would empower you with the skillset to apply the framework to your startup, or any other venture of your choice. The project is for entrepreneurs who want to secure funding for their startups. Also, for intrapreneurs and project managers who need to convince key stakeholder for funding a project or new venture. At the end of the project, you will be able to use the canvas to deliver a result-oriented pitch for your startup or project
