From Risk to Opportunity: Mastering Tough Questions as a Founder
Why do some founders get asked about potential failures, while others get asked about potential success?
Research shows that women and underrepresented entrepreneurs often face risk-focused questions from investors, employers, and stakeholders - questions that force them to defend their ideas rather than showcase their potential.
In this interactive session, you’ll learn how to flip the script and reframe risk-based questions into opportunity-driven answers that boost your chances of securing funding, jobs, or partnerships. Led by an experienced engineer and communication expert, this workshop will give you actionable strategies to navigate tough conversations with confidence.
Whether you're working to get your ideas funded, recognised, or taken seriously, this session will help you sharpen your pitch, strengthen your positioning, and take control of the narrative.
