B2B Meetings Applicants Executive Summary June 24th, 2015 Rencontres internationales de la Silver Economy GENERAL GUIDELINES LESS IS MORE. So be brief. Your contact will rarely take time to read more than 2 pages. Don’t repeat yourself. There is one specific place for each aspect of your company. Clear, concise language is key. Speak to businessmen, not engineers. You will often meet with business development teams that, while knowledgeable of your industry, may not have engineering backgrounds and are just as interested in the benefits of your technology as its technical aspects/features (if not more). Thus, they need a clear explanation of a problem, and a clear explanation of the solution you propose. In other words, the “story” surrounding your product needs to pique their interest! Develop an elevator pitch. At the end of this, if there is one thing your reader should remember, what is it? Your tagline should convey this, and be the document’s guiding force. You only get one chance at a first impression. Aesthetics and grammar are extremely important. Failure to present your company in a professional manner drastically reduces your chances of selection, no matter how innovative your technology! Good Luck!!!
