    Mistakes That Make Investors Nervous, According to a PhD in Pitching

    There is no such thing as the perfect pitch. But you can get close by implementing a few research-backed methods to your delivery, deck, and message. In this episode of Build Mode, host Isabelle Johannesen sits down with Dr. Eike Gerhardt, who has aPhD in pitching and spent nearly a decade studying the science of startup pitching before starting Autopoiesis Sciences. And he’s joined by Demetri Maxim, co-founder and CEO of Nephrogen, who came in second at TechCrunch Startup Battlefield 2025. Together, they break down Demetri’s actual Startup Battlefield pitch to unpack what worked, what could be improved, and what research tells us about how investors respond to founders. Eike explains why credibility signals matter, how technical founders can simplify without oversimplifying, and why Q&A should be treated as a second pitch. Demetri shares how he learned to explain complex biotech to generalist investors, how redesigning his deck changed his confidence onstage, and what he would do differently today. They also explore how body language and authenticity affect a pitch, how investor questions can reveal bias, and how founders can use AI to prepare for difficult Q&A. They get into: What Demetri got right and in his Startup Battlefield pitch How to explain complicated technology without oversimplifying it The credibility signals investors look for in a pitch Why some technical language can actually make founders more credible How to decide what belongs in your pitch versus the Q&A Why technical details can sometimes make your startup sound riskier How body language and authenticity influence investors Why Q&A should be treated as a second pitch What research reveals about bias in investor questions How to use AI to rehearse difficult investor Q&A Why there is no single “perfect” startup pitch The biggest pitching mistakes technical founders make Here are the studies mentioned in the episode: Kanze, D., Huang, L., Conley, M.

    How a Crisis Turned Julia Hartz Into the CEO Eventbrite Needed

    Eventbrite has survived nearly every kind of challenge a startup can face: launching into a financial crisis, raising venture capital after 27 rejections, going public, watching its core business disappear during COVID, and eventually leaving the public markets after nearly two decades of building. In this episode of Build Mode, host Isabelle Johannesen sits down with Julia Hartz, co-founder and former CEO of Eventbrite, to unpack the decisions that helped the company weather those highs and lows. When Eventbrite went public in 2018, Julia became just the 21st woman founder-CEO to lead her company through an IPO and the second-youngest woman to do so (milestones she remembers as both an achievement and a stark reminder of how few women had reached that point). But getting to the IPO, and navigating what came afterward, was anything but straightforward. Julia explains what it was like to take over as CEO from her husband and co-founder Kevin Hartz, why she initially questioned whether she was ready for the job, and how leading through the pandemic forced her to find her own leadership style. She also looks back on Eventbrite’s unusual fundraising journey, from bootstrapping the company for its first two-and-a-half years to the success during the 2008 financial crisis that ultimately landed them Sequoia as a lead investor.  Julia reflects on the realities of running a public company, balancing investor expectations against the needs of customers, the mistakes that took years to repair, and the painful decision to take Eventbrite private following its acquisition by Bending Spoons. Through it all, she shares what nearly 20 years of building Eventbrite taught her about resilience, leadership, reinvention, and making hard decisions when there is no obvious playbook. They get into: How Julia Hartz and Kevin Hartz built Eventbrite from a bootstrapped startup into a global ticketing platform Why 27 venture firms rejected Eventbrite during the 2008 financial crisis How strong execution helped Eventbrite turn those rejections into a Sequoia-backed round What it was like for Julia to take over as CEO from her husband and co-founder Why becoming CEO felt “terrifying” and how Julia eventually found her own leadership style How Eventbrite responded when COVID caused the company to process more refunds than revenue The crisis-management exercise that helped Julia’s team rethink the business from scratch What Julia learned as one of the youngest women and few woman founder-CEOs to take a company public Why the realities of running a public company can differ from founders’ expectations How CEOs should balance investor pressure with what is best for their customers Why Eventbrite ultimately decided to leave the public markets The mistakes Julia made while scaling Eventbrite and why talking directly to customers remains one of her most important lessons What 20 years of building taught Julia about resilience, leadership, reinvention, and knowing when to let go Subscribe to Build Mode on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you like to listen.

    Learn What VCs Actually Want, From a Founder Who's Raised $1B with Sasha Orloff, Puzzle

    Investors want founders who understand the financial reality of their business. Messy data, misunderstood metrics, or waiting until you’re nearly out of cash to start fundraising can cost founders leverage, valuation, and even a term sheet. In this episode of Build Mode, host Isabelle Johannesen sits down with Sasha Orloff, founder and CEO of Puzzle and Startup Battlefield alum, to talk about what he’s learned from building companies that have raised more than $1 billion collectively.  Sasha breaks down what investors look for during fundraising, which financial metrics founders should know by heart, and why VCs don’t expect your startup to be perfect—they expect you to understand its reality. He also shares how he nearly lost a term sheet because his data room wasn’t ready, how fundraising diligence changes as a startup grows, and why getting your financial house in order can help founders raise with more confidence and leverage. They get into: What raising more than $1 billion across multiple companies taught Sasha about fundraising Why investors value founders who have a strong grasp of their company’s financial reality The financial metrics founders should know before pitching VCs How investor expectations change from pre-seed and seed through Series A, B, and beyond Why revenue growth and the quality of that revenue are critical fundraising metrics How runway, margins, sales efficiency, and profitability factor into investor decisions Why waiting until you’re running out of cash can hurt your fundraising leverage How Sasha nearly lost a term sheet because his data room wasn’t ready Why financial organization and compliance can influence investor confidence and startup valuations What founders should have prepared for the due diligence process Why VCs don’t expect perfection—and why being honest about what isn’t working can make for a stronger pitch How Sasha’s own fundraising and finance frustrations ultimately led him to build Puzzle How AI could change the way startups manage accounting and understand their financial health Subscribe to Build Mode on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you like to listen.

    The VC Backing the American Dream with Manan Mehta, Unshackled Ventures

    Immigrant founders have built some of the world’s most valuable companies, but many still face barriers that make it harder to get a startup off the ground. Visa restrictions, limited access to friends-and-family capital, shallow networks, and a venture industry built around pattern matching can keep promising founders from getting funded before they have a chance to prove themselves. In this episode of Build Mode, host Isabelle Johannesen sits down with Manan Mehta, co-founder and managing partner of Unshackled Ventures, to talk about why he believes immigrant founders represent one of venture capital’s biggest overlooked opportunities. Manan breaks down how Unshackled built an investment model designed to help founders navigate immigration barriers, why traditional VC pattern matching causes investors to miss potential outliers, and how his team evaluates founders at day zero—often before they have a product, customers, or traction. He also explains why the structural gaps that make some founders harder to fund may be exactly where investors should be looking for outsized returns. They get into: The four structural barriers immigrant founders face when starting companies in the U.S. How Unshackled Ventures helps founders navigate visas while building their startups Why VC’s reliance on pattern matching can cause investors to miss outlier founders How Manan evaluates founders before they have a product, customers, or traction The IQ, AQ, EQ, and SQ framework Unshackled uses to evaluate founder potential Why resilience, lived experience, and a founder’s relationship to the problem can matter more than a polished pitch Why structural gaps can create some of the biggest opportunities for investors How founders without traditional networks can find alternative paths to early capital Why founders should understand their personal “why” instead of trying to fit the traditional VC mold Subscribe to Build Mode on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you like to listen.

    The legal mistakes that can sink your startup before series A with Kristina Subbotina, Lexsy

    Setting up a sound legal foundation could be what saves a startup down the line. A missing founder vesting agreement, an unclear IP agreement, or a messy cap table can derail fundraising, spark co-founder disputes, or even kill an otherwise promising company before it has a chance to scale. In this episode of Build Mode, host Isabelle Johannesen sits down with Kristina Subbotinai, founder and CEO of Lesxy and former startup attorney at Cooley, to break down the legal fundamentals every founder needs to get right. Kristina shares the four non-negotiable legal decisions every startup should make from day one, what investors actually look for during due diligence, how founders should think about negotiating control versus valuation, and why leverage is the key to getting better fundraising terms. She also shares real stories from the front lines of startup law, from co-founder breakups and investor negotiations to a founder who tried using ChatGPT to draft a merger agreement. They get into: The four legal mistakes that can make a startup unfundable How founder vesting, IP assignment, Delaware incorporation, and 83(b) elections protect your company What VCs actually look for during due diligence and how to avoid common red flags How founders should negotiate valuation, board control, and investor rights Why leverage comes from building a great business—not signing better term sheets The wildest legal horror stories Kristina has seen, including a startup acquisition gone completely off the rails Subscribe to Build Mode on⁠ Apple Podcasts⁠, ⁠Spotify⁠, or⁠ wherever you like to listen⁠.

    Why SeatGeek walked away from going public with Jack Groetzinger

    SeatGeek didn't become one of the biggest names in ticketing by following the playbook. It started as a simple ticket search engine on the TechCrunch 50 stage (now known as TechCrunch Battlefield) and took on the industry’s massive incumbents by expanding its vision, surviving industry-defining challenges, and convincing investors that even a monopoly could be disrupted. In this episode of Build Mode, host and Startup Battlefield lead Isabelle Johannesen sits down with Jack Groetzinger, co-founder and CEO of SeatGeek, to unpack the company's 17-year journey from startup to industry leader. Jack shares how SeatGeek raised nearly $400 million in venture capital, why he believes founders should think about expanding rather than pivoting, what it was like fundraising during the COVID-19 shutdown of live events, and why the company ultimately walked away from its planned SPAC. He also explains how founders can convince investors to back them against an entrenched incumbent, why your first hires define your company's future, and how AI is reshaping the future of live entertainment and ticketing. They get into: Why SeatGeek chose to compete with Ticketmaster and how investors evaluated that opportunity How SeatGeek survived COVID and closed its hardest fundraising round during the pandemic Why passionate customers can become your best fundraising asset The hiring mistakes Jack wishes he could undo and why your first employees shape company culture How AI is transforming ticketing, live entertainment, and the fan experience Jack Groetzinger's advice for founders building companies that challenge established incumbents Subscribe to Build Mode on⁠ Apple Podcasts⁠, ⁠Spotify⁠, or⁠ wherever you like to listen⁠.

    Nvidia's Sydney Sykes on Winning Corporate Venture Capital Deals

    Building a great product is one thing. Getting a company like Nvidia to put its name behind it is something else entirely. In this episode of Build Mode, host and Startup Battlefield lead Isabelle Johannesen sits down with Sydney Sykes, who leads global venture capital alliances and partnerships at Nvidia, to unpack how startups break into the Nvidia ecosystem and what a corporate venture capital partnership actually looks like once they're in. Sydney explains how founders can get on Nvidia's radar through programs like Nvidia Inception, why strategic alignment matters more than a slick pitch deck, and how corporate venture capital differs from traditional venture capital when it comes to fundraising, diligence, and deal terms. Drawing on her experience as an investor at NEA and Lightspeed Venture Partners, and as co-founder of BLCK VC, she also discusses access and representation in venture capital and how the AI boom is reshaping who gets funded. She closes with practical fundraising advice for founders hoping to build lasting relationships with corporate VCs like Nvidia. They get into: How a startup can "enter the Nvidia orbit" through the Nvidia Inception program What Nvidia looks for before offering its stamp of approval to an AI startup Corporate venture capital vs. traditional venture capital: what founders need to know Why a corporate VC checks for strategic relevance, not just financial upside How to pitch the same startup differently to a corporate VC vs. an institutional VC Why founders should build their cap table like a puzzle, not a popularity contest How the AI boom is lowering barriers to entrepreneurship — and where old barriers remain Why Sydney believes VCs should pay closer attention to energy and data center infrastructure How Black VC is expanding access and education across the venture capital industry Sydney Sykes' advice for founders trying to break into the corporate venture ecosystem Subscribe to Build Mode on⁠ Apple Podcasts⁠, ⁠Spotify⁠, or⁠ wherever you like to listen⁠.

    How Elorian AI pulled off a $300M pre-seed valuation with Andrew Dai

    Building an AI startup is one thing. Raising one of the largest seed rounds of the year before launching a product is something else entirely. In this episode of Build Mode, host and Startup Battlefield lead Isabelle Johannesen sits down with Andrew Dai, founder and CEO of Elorian and former Google DeepMind researcher, to unpack how his company raised a $55 million seed round at a $300 million valuation before generating revenue or releasing a product. Andrew shares what investors saw in Elorian's vision for visual AI, how he approached fundraising after leaving Google DeepMind, and why choosing the right investors mattered more than maximizing valuation. He also offers practical advice for founders building in AI, explains why today's fundraising environment rewards clear storytelling over technical jargon, and shares what surprised him most as a first-time founder. They get into: How Elorian raised a $55 million seed round before launching a product Why visual AI is one of the next major frontiers in artificial intelligence What investors look for when backing frontier AI startups Why the highest valuation isn't always the best fundraising outcome How to pitch highly technical products to non-technical investors What founders should look for when choosing venture capital partners How to hire top AI talent away from Big Tech Why moving quickly matters more than ever in today's AI race How founders can build defensible AI companies as technology evolves Andrew's advice for first-time founders raising venture capital Subscribe to Build Mode on⁠ Apple Podcasts⁠, ⁠Spotify⁠, or⁠ wherever you like to listen⁠.
