Equip Founders to Secure
Venture Capital Investment
Use revolutionary science-based training to practice what specific concepts to discuss during Q&A …
… and which concepts NOT to discuss
InvestorQ&A prepares start-up founders to win venture capital by focussing on the crucial Investor Question & Answer session.
No coordinated program has ever focussed on the VC Q&A … to teach founders what VCs most want to hear. Do you know which questions you should NOT answer?
InvestorQ&A is a program of instruction, online role-play in a Simulation Console, and immediate unbiased, industry-agnostic feedback about the founders’ answers.
Created by the founder of one of North America’s most comprehensive university VC programs, InvestorQ&A is based on world-class science.

What Founders Say
“I learnt a lot from the experience and knowledge of Dr. Ellen Farrell and the collective wisdom of the cohort. I would strongly recommend the Investoready program to all founders. I rate it 11/10. I cherished the privacy feature of the console where I could practise my pitches without feeling judged or worried ”
Wanda Butler — Founder of WeDecide
“I have had a spark of clarity in terms of what I was missing in my pitch in terms of painting the big aspirational vision, which explains pretty much the feedback that I received all last year.”
Sumati Pundit — Founder Kaitongo
“I love taking short courses. They don’t take over your life and you learn something new. Like working with you.”

What Venture Capitalists Say
“In my view you’re hitting the nail on the head by helping to develop a skill set critical to fundraising.”
“Q&A is critical. They need to weave a story rather than jumping all over the place.”
“Responding naturally and quickly to a question gives the VC comfort that the founder has a depth of knowledge.”
What Entrepreneur Support Organizations Say
“We really wanted to make sure that women had an edge when they were pitching for venture capital, and this is the key to adding that piece to our Grow Now program.”
“Two groups struggle with seeding their companies—newcomers and girls.”
“I am not surprised that [the author’s] research has led her to develop a program that has the potential to have a major societal impact.”
“It’s like taking music lessons. You learn new material, you go away and practise it all week, and then you go back to your music teacher and show them what you learned that week.”
“This is game-changing programming. Support groups are defined by their programming; they are always looking for new programming. It helps them justify their funding levels.”
“You should be showing this to Sheryl Sandberg and Melinda Gates.”
