PROVIDENCE - (January 10, 2023) - The Rhode Island Business Competition's workshop “Business Pitch Deck Development" will be held on Thursday, January 19th at 5:30 PM at Venture Café in Providence.

Our presenter is Nick Cianfaglione, a serial entrepreneur who founded Artist Republik which was successfully acquired by a publicly traded music company in 2022. His newest venture is Restaurent, an online marketplace for private restaurant and event space rentals.

This interactive workshop will detail all the different aspects of a business pitch deck, including background and financial information, goals of the business, and description of how the business will be a success. A business pitch deck is a critical document because it showcases the entrepreneur's passion and desire to launch and grow a viable business. It can be a tricky task to complete a business pitch deck, especially for a startup when several questions still need to be answered, so this is a worthwhile workshop that will provide the resources an entrepreneur needs as well as an understanding of how to create an investor-ready business plan.

Don’t miss this opportunity to learn from the best and take your pitch deck to the next level! This event is free and open to the public but pre-registration is required - please click here to register. This event will be in person as well as live-streamed.
