  “ Very informative presentation on how to pitch yourself to a VC. Tough to avoid this problem, but some of the Q&A seemed to go a bit outside the scope. I think a good strategy for these kinds of meetings is to have an initial presentation or group discussion, and then leave the second half for smaller break-out group chats (maybe 5-10 people at most) on particular issues. ”
