Series C pitch deck: 20-slide structure for $50M+ raises and pre-IPO prep

Series C decks read like pre-IPO documents. Public-market comparables, EBITDA path, executive team depth (not just founders), exit scenario analysis, and corporate structure. SlideGMM generates the 20-slide framework typical Series C investors expect.

Frequently asked questions

  • Usually. Series C valuations land at $1B+ for most growth-stage companies; the round serves to bridge to IPO 18-24 months later. Decks reflect this β€” public market comps, EBITDA path, S-1 preview content. Series C investors include crossover funds + sovereign wealth.

  • Series B is "scale to growth"; Series C is "scale to exit." Decks add: public-market comparables, EBITDA bridge, executive depth chart, exit scenario analysis (M&A vs IPO), and corporate structure (international entities, equity overhang).

  • Yes β€” detailed 5-year forecast model in appendix. Not on the deck itself (slides are summary). The forecast model is a separate Excel/Google Sheets shared after the in-person pitch. Decks should reference the model but not embed it.
