The Speech Improvement Company is the firm that executives from biotech start-ups count on to help them train for, develop, and deliver winning presentations to critically important businesspeople. We specialize in biotech and work with management teams at biotech start-ups to help them secure funding, by transforming technical information into compelling business presentations that truly resonate with investors.

“We were prepping for our IPO and many of the people we would encounter did not have a scientific background. So the most important thing we did was to simplify, stay above the details. We received positive feedback as a result.”

– Frank DeRosa, Senior VP, Research and Process Development, Translate Bio

OUR ACADEMIC APPROACH TO PRESENTATION SKILLS TRAINING

Many of our coaches, including authors of this paper, have studied and taught communication at the graduate level or higher and collectively have written 13 communication-related books, including a comprehensive textbook in partnership with the National Communication Association on how to coach and train communication skills. When we say “we’ve written the book” on how to be a speech coach, we have. Literally.

We are qualified to address biotech investor presentations because of our experience with, and knowledge of, human communication. From theories on how persuasion works, to the best ways to effectively connect with your listeners, we have studied it, written about it, discussed it, and filtered it through interactions with hundreds of companies both large and small.

We’re not a PR firm that also teaches presenters, and we don’t approach presentations from a theatrical background who see this as a form of acting. What they miss is the essence of persuasion, the field tests and studies on human reasoning, the current academic research on interpersonal communication, and a deep understanding of the interactions and thinking that occurs on both sides of the table.

PROVEN, VETTED TRAINING CURRICULUM FOR BIOTECH START-UPS

The Speech Improvement Company will develop a custom training program based on your specific requirements. Through our peer-developed training with numerous biotech firms, we know the success factors and can help you determine the topics to address in your training.

Your training program can include a combination of several sessions, including:

Here are examples of topics our workshops and one-on-one coaching can address for you and your presentation team:
