Udaipur,  Business Circle International’s (BCI) youth wing, BCI Yuva, will organise a specialised Startup Investor Pitching Workshop on September 13 under its BCI Yuva Investor Connect initiative. The workshop aims to equip startups and young entrepreneurs with the knowledge, confidence and practical skills required to become investor-ready and effectively present their ventures to potential investors.

The workshop will be held from 12:30 PM to 5:30 PM at Madhushree Banquet, 100 Feet Road, Shobhagpura, behind the Judio Store, Udaipur.

BCI Founder and Chairman Mukesh Madhavani said that in today’s competitive startup ecosystem, having a promising business idea is only the beginning. Entrepreneurs must also be able to communicate their vision effectively, demonstrate growth potential and ensure that their ventures are legally and financially prepared for investment.

“The ability to present a business convincingly before investors can be as important as the idea itself. Through this workshop, we aim to help young entrepreneurs understand what investors look for and prepare them to make a stronger pitch at the BCI Yuva Investor Connect,” Madhavani said.

BCI Yuva President Meenakshi Paliwal said the workshop has been designed as a practical learning platform covering the key areas that determine a startup’s investment readiness. Participants will gain insights into venture readiness, investment architecture, traction and growth, digital presence, legal and regulatory compliance, and investor pitching.

The workshop will also focus on practical skills such as pitch delivery, compelling storytelling, founder communication and handling investor questions and answers with confidence.

The sessions will be led by a panel of experienced experts, including Startup Consultant and Mentor Deepak K. Soni, Performance Marketing Expert Rochak Bhavsar, Legal, Regulatory & Compliance Expert Janamjay Mehta, and Corporate Trainer & Soft Skills Coach Pratima S. Ratani.
