Pitch Deck Secrets They Won’t Tell You ft. Nina Raab from LionRun Consulting

JUST DROPPED: An incredible conversation with Nina Raab of LionRun Consulting about the REAL secrets of startup fundraising!

Nina’s story?

She made Aliyah 1.5 years ago and built a 10-person consultancy from Tel Aviv to NYC.

Now she helps seed to Series B startups raise serious cash - and 40% of her clients are Israeli. 🇮🇱

What blew us away:

- Most founders waste time pitching to the wrong VCs

- You need 3 different deck versions (not just one!)

- VC analysts - not partners - often decide your fate

- Israel's meritocracy beats Silicon Valley's credential obsession

- She was originally going to co-found Israel Tech with Yoel!

Nina’s 3-phase process covers strategy, storytelling, and investor meetings. Plus, she partners with boutique VCs as their value creation arm.


Her biggest warning? Don’t take money too early. You’ll regret it later.

And her best insight: In Israel, no one cares where you went to school. Just bring value.
