Hi there!

We just wrapped up an outstanding 5-city tour this summer and the response from founders was incredible. 

The feedback was strong, the rooms were packed with energy, and the requests to bring The Investor Ready Workshop back to more cities were even stronger. So we’re doing it again.

This fall, we’re returning to the 5 cities we visited this summer and adding 3 new cities.

What is The Investor Ready Workshop?

Raising capital is about more than your deck or your traction. It’s about how you show up in the room. In this 5-hour, hands-on experience, Clarence Bethea shares the lessons founders rarely hear about fundraising. From understanding how investors think and evaluate you, to mastering your pitch, communication, confidence, and the psychology of the room.

As one founder from our summer tour put it:

“It feels like I walked away with weeks’ worth of knowledge and immense value.”
— Vladimir Gurkot

Only 50 seats per city.

Registration is now open.

If your city is on the list, grab your seat before it fills up. And if you don’t see your city, come join us in another stop, we’d love to have you in the room.
