Are you a founder looking for seed funding? Helm holds a quarterly Investment Day for those looking to raise – register to pitch with the link below: 👉 https://shorturl.at/EfMKj Ever wondered what Angel Investors look for in pitches? We all know how difficult it is to raise our first round. Helm Investment Day hosts up to 15 angel investors, most of whom have scaled and exited their business and have now turned to active investing. Our Angels shared these top tips: 1. Have skin in the game - for Angels, putting your own time and money in shows commitment and belief in the business. 2. Commit to the business - Angels want to see that the founder is 100% in, they don’t want to invest in a side hustle. 3. Be clear and succinct - If someone is going to invest in you, you need to be able to explain what your business does in a couple of short sentences. If you're not clear on the value proposition, investors will think twice. A big thanks to Fora for their greating meeting rooms spaces for the Investment Day! Best of luck to all those who apply! #angelinvestment #entrepreneurship #scaleup #activeinvestor #founder

🚀 How can AI transform your business? Does your business even need to use AI? Discover the insights from our Helm AI Dinner hosted by Sebastien Payet at the Smith & Wollensky where we explored the latest AI tools and their game-changing potential. Some standout mentions included: Perplexity - An answer engine Synthesia - For creating avatars Gong AI - Revolutionizing sales Zyte AI - Mastering web scraping 🔍 A crucial takeaway: The question should be "what are my problems", not "where can I apply AI". Business leaders often make the mistake of trying to shoe-horn AI into their processes without truly understanding the problems they need to solve. 📊 For those mining unstructured data from platforms like Slack, Google Big Query is a powerful tool to consider. 💡 Another insightful point: Efficient use of Gen AI is not in isolation but in combination with other AI tools and technologies. 🔒 We also delved into critical issues such as unregulated data collection for AI algorithms and its implications for privacy, and how to curb AI-driven misinformation.

Ever wondered how someone enters a room and effortlessly commands attention without uttering a word? Are you looking to develop your Executive Presence? 💭 Yesterday we had a fantastic breakfast at The Savoy Hotel with Rick Snyder, CEO of Invisible Edge, who demystified executive presence and provided tangible tools to enhance your influence with your team, buyers and investors. Some of the key learning points included: ➡ Enhanced leadership and speaking skills ➡ Identified gaps in your own executive presence ➡ How to read body language and nonverbal cues accurately Interestingly, whether you're more introverted or extraverted is not important for executive presence, rather how you communicate and read the room is how you truly master influence. A big thank you to Rick Snyder for delivering such a brilliant workshop with actionable tips. 🙏 If you are interested in learning more about membership at Helm, you can apply here: https://lnkd.in/eA68w3_H #founders #helm #community #scaleups

Although we try not to have favorites, few events bring the Helm community together like our annual Summer Social! 🎉 Last night, we gathered high atop London to celebrate the diverse, curious, and entrepreneurial spirit of our members. At Helm, it's not just about business; it's about building friendships, planning futures, and openly discussing challenges and opportunities with those who 'get it'. Thank you all for making us better. We look forward to seeing you at the many events we have lined up in the coming months!
