A Pitch Workshop for Entrepreneurs and Innovators in Flemingsberg

Earlier this spring, the Flemingsberg Science Foundation hosted a pitch workshop aimed at supporting entrepreneurs and innovators with promising ideas in Flemingsberg to elevate their concepts to the next level. This workshop coincided with our prestigious competition, Flemingsberg Science Award.

Mehkar Sheikh, CEO of Venture Cup Sweden, and Malcolm Larri, Pitch Coach, shared the fundamental building blocks for creating a memorable pitch. Participants learned how to craft a compelling and engaging pitch, and they also had the opportunity to receive feedback on their pitches.

”I strongly believe that a well-crafted pitch can open doors to endless possibilities for startup founders. Venture Cup pitch workshop with Flemingsberg Science was a transformative experience, not only guiding startups to refine their stories for the competition but also empowering them with the confidence to make their mark.”, says Mehkar Sheikh, CEO på Venture Cup Sverige.

It was an intense hour where participants reflected on how they can deliver a pitch to achieve their goals: What is their value proposition, what problem do they solve, and how do they solve it?

Johnny Högberg Summarizes 2025 – A Year of Growth and Collaboration in Flemingsberg

We are most effective and make the greatest impact when we engage our founders and leverage their size, organizations, and influence, and we still strongly believe in this. At the same time, the fact that we have grown as an organization has also made a difference. Today, we are exactly the kind of “two-pizza team” that Amazon founder Jeff Bezos highlights as the most effective. Among other things, we are now running two cluster initiatives and creating a level of engagement, buzz, and content that is noticeable in Flemingsberg and is actually helping to change the area.
