Getting media attention to boost your startup
The first masterclass is “How to get media attention that can boost your startup’s credibility for fundraising, sales, and hiring.”
This session, led by Mohan Belani, CEO and Co-Founder of e27, offers a crash course in media outreach specifically for startups. Participants will gain insights into how journalists think and learn to craft compelling press releases.
“The goal is to leverage media attention to enhance a startup’s credibility, making it easier to raise funds, increase sales, and attract top talent,” said Belani.
This masterclass is ideal for founders, marketers, or anyone aiming to boost their startup’s visibility for fundraising, sales, or hiring.
Mastering leadership in startup contexts
The second masterclass is titled “Leadership need not be lonely: Let’s decode and thrive together.”
Hosted by Ksther Lim, CEO of The People Decoder, this masterclass addresses the challenges of leadership and the feeling of isolation that often accompanies it. Through reflective activities and live problem-solving exercises, participants will explore strategies to foster deeper connections, build confidence, and achieve better results as leaders.
“The session aims to equip leaders with the tools needed to navigate leadership with clarity and thrive in their roles,” said Lim.
This session is designed for senior leaders, executives, or anyone looking to strengthen their leadership skills, develop meaningful connections, and overcome team challenges.
