What are the best additions to a $500k portfolio to boost performance?. ETH is Up and will do better, I believe as indicators for profits continue to improve, investors like me believe that “Santa has come early” to the markets.

  I think you’re better off with majority investment in bitcoin and uprising equities cos they always outperform.. Alternatively speaking to a certified market strategist can help with pointers on which to acquire

Elon — He tries when others don’t even try… so, many things are done which people think were impossible.

Don’t expect robotaxis but good EVs from Tesla. ❤????

If you’re investing into Tesla on a quarter to quarter basis this company is not for you ???? Long term all the way. Tesla has manufacturing mastered and people that think there is competition is laughable. Only those that do a deep dive into the financials understand Tesla and the supposed competition ????

There is no such thing as the perfect pitch. But you can get close by implementing a few research-backed methods to your delivery, deck, and message.

In this episode of Build Mode, host Isabelle Johannesen sits down with Dr. Eike Gerhardt, who has aPhD in pitching and spent nearly a decade studying the science of startup pitching before starting Autopoiesis Sciences. And he’s joined by Demetri Maxim, co-founder and CEO of Nephrogen, who came in second at TechCrunch Startup Battlefield 2025.

Together, they break down Demetri’s actual Startup Battlefield pitch to unpack what worked, what could be improved, and what research tells us about how investors respond to founders. Eike explains why credibility signals matter, how technical founders can simplify without oversimplifying, and why Q&A should be treated as a second pitch. Demetri shares how he learned to explain complex biotech to generalist investors, how redesigning his deck changed his confidence onstage, and what he would do differently today.
They also explore how body language and authenticity affect a pitch, how investor questions can reveal bias, and how founders can use AI to prepare for difficult Q&A.
