EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
GENERAL GUIDELINES
I. LESS IS MORE.
Keep it short and simple. We propose a template here, so use it.
II. DON’T REPEAT YOURSELF.
There is one specific place for each aspect of your company. Clear, concise language is key.
III. SPEAK TO BUSINESSMEN, NOT ENGINEERS.
People who will read this need a clear explanation of a problem, and a clear explanation of the solution you propose.
IV. DEVELOP AN ELEVATOR PITCH.
At the end of this, if there is one thing your reader should remember, what would it be? Think hard about that.
V. DON’T FORGET ABOUT AESTHETICS & GRAMMAR.
Failure to present your company in a professional manner drastically reduces your chances of selection, no matter how innovative your technology is.
