Wow, this was so great! Love the numbers, the attention to detail! The elevator pitch is so great too, getting Elon excited about a-ha moments first, rather than just the investment potential, but then leading him to the investment potential before finishing. Takes him off-guard, maybe she’s not pitching me, oh wait? is she? In the venture deck, I would have liked to see what I could get in return as an investor a little earlier, before getting into the detailed breakdown of expected growth. It was however very informative and really well done. I would want to know how much of that pie I can get while evaluating if I think it is an over-estimate or under-estimate. Definitely pieces from your presentation I wish I had used in mine.

Hi Robert -- thanks for your positive feedback and insights. I'm a numbers person! And thanks for sharing your preference regarding wanting to know earlier on what the ROI is. Also, I'm not sure what you mean re: pieces of pie? Do you mean equity stake? This particular venture pitch is for debt-based financing so ROI is interest on principal. In this case estimated to be a couple points above prime (typical for social impact investments). Anyway, let me know what your mean re: pie, and I'll be happy to further clarify. With thanks for your insights and feedback.
