You cannot prepare enough for the speaking part. I love to chat about the business, but it's different when you have other people watching. Don't let that inhibit you. Just believe in what you know, and that's your business.

Watch or listen to our very first episode of Beyond LaunchPad as Katie Bellerose, Commercial Banker at GSB, sits down with Torey Penrod-Cambra to dig into her path to entrepreneurship, experience competing in LaunchPad, and advice for reaching the next level.
We were all there pitching in competition, but everyone was genuinely interested in each other's stories and products. It [LaunchPad] was a great networking opportunity to meet entrepreneurs that I might not have otherwise.
