As will be the case live at CloudBeat 2011, each company will have four minutes to showcase their cloud product or service. After each presentation, a mix of leading Sequoia Capital cloud experts, VentureBeat staff and speaking coaches will provide thorough and actionable feedback (both on the content and the presentation). This is an amazing opportunity to foster relationships with Sequoia Capital and receive expert advice on honing your pitch. And this is all before the event!
