About This Event

Great products don't sell themselves, clear stories do.

Join Narrativ By AK for a curated conversation on how early-stage founders can use storytelling as their go-to-market advantage. From sharpening positioning, defining a clear proposition, and communicating in a way that moves customers and investors, we will dive into it all with our founder and investor panel.

This event is for founders who are actively planning to raise in the next 3-6 months.

Come for actionable frameworks, candid lessons, and conversations with other ambitious builders.

This panel will be moderated by Anna Kaplan, Founder & CEO of Narrativ By AK. Narrativ By AK is a consulting agency dedicated to helping founders tell their story and build a personal brand that drives growth. They also work hands on with Seed and Series A startups to build out an event strategy that actually drives growth.

Our panelists:

Maricor Resent: Co-Founder and COO at Queen One just closed $25M in funding
Eni Maj, Co-Founder and CEO of Travel Spoken, just raised her pre-seed
Ash Straughn, Founder and CEO of Sam, Ex -Postmates and Ex-JPMorgan and she's now bootstrapping her company
Jospeh Alalou, Co-Founder & GP at Daring Ventures
