As promised in the last blog about how to write a “Pitch Deck”, in this blog I will talk more about the importance of Finance and Accounting for your start-up.

RAISING MONEY FOR YOUR START-UP? YOU NEED A GREAT PITCH DECK

In the last 3 years, at Cisneros Interactive we have talked and seen many entrepreneurs wanting to raise capital.   Honestly, 90% of them may have a great idea but their “Pitch Deck” (usually a powerpoint presentation) is very poor.   I do think that Latin American entrepreneurs are far behind their peers in other countries but […]

In one of my last blog entries, I wrote about Uber.   This time, I am writing about AirBnb, a marketplace selling accommodations. An article on the Wall Street Journal caught my attention: It seems that AirBnB is worth more than Marriott International with its 4,000 hotels under management and US$13.8bn in revenue.  In contrast, AirBnB […]
