Profile of the Speaker: 

*During the session the trainer, Adelina Chalmers, will give an impromptu demonstration based on the business of an attendee and how she would pitch their business for investment. Approach Adelina during the networking session prior to the event if you would like to take part. 

"With Adelina's coaching how to pitch for investment we have secured £200,000 angel investment and £100,000 from the Big Venture Challenge." 
Fiona Nielsen, CEO, Repositive, Cambridge, UK


"Adelina's technique on pitching for investment has helped me secure several millions of pounds for our business and in one year we have grown from zero to 15 employees and a 27,000 sqf factory in Cambridge, UK. The key to her training is that she pitched back to me my business and this gave me immediate, huge clarity on how I should pitch."
Jerome Joaug, Managing Director, Cambridge Nano Systems Ltd
