🎙️ Presenting the first episode of ‘No BS by Elevation Capital’, a brand new podcast series where, as the name suggests, we cut through the noise and bring you actionable insights on navigating the earliest days of venture-building.

No BS will share the tribal knowledge we've accumulated over 20+ years of working with India's best early-stage founders to the benefit of anyone early in their entrepreneurial journey.

In our debut episode, Kshitij Jayakrishnan (Vice President, Elevation Capital) and Vaibhav Chowdhury (AVP, Elevation Capital) join Krishna Veera Vanamali (AVP Marketing - Content, Elevation Capital) to deconstruct the art and science of crafting the perfect pitch deck.

Featuring never-seen-before slides from the first pitch decks of category-defining Elevation portfolio companies like Swiggy, Urban Company, Blissclub, Comet, Atlys, PlaySimple and Meesho, they break down six key principles that consistently appear in winning pitch decks.

Stay tuned for more episodes tackling the questions every early-stage founder wants answered.
