Please note: We have changed speakers for this session! Elizabeth Philbrick will be leading and it will be her own flavor of the below description. 

Your startup's story is the foundation of your brand, giving your company its identity, purpose, and direction. A good startup story is more than just the history of your company; it's a compelling narrative that captures the imagination and engages your audience's emotions.

In this workshop, you will discover the art of crafting a compelling startup story and leveraging its power to build a strong brand and connect with your audience. Additionally, it is an effective method for creating customer-focused solutions, attracting financial support, and refining your ideas.

During this session, you'll also have the opportunity to share your ideas with fellow community members, enabling you to refine and succeed in crafting your unique narrative. By exchanging stories within this supportive environment, you'll build a stronger connection to your business and community with other workshop attendees.
