THE METHODOLOGY · BOOK-BACKED

Built on the methodology from the book Startup Pitch Presentation.

Since 2014 Maurizio La Cava has helped Fortune 500 companies — Google, Johnson & Johnson, Ferrero, Adidas, Accenture, Unicredit — and hundreds of startups in fundraising to turn decks into instruments of persuasion.

The book codifies this experience into a single framework: the Investor Pitch Canvas with its 12 sections, and the three pillars of persuasion applied to every slide. Taught at Politecnico di Milano and PoliHub. This app puts the entire playbook at your fingertips.
