The Story
In Jeddah, a founder told a tight story, then kept going. More charts, more risk.

The sponsor’s attention drifted. A competitor with fewer slides - but clearer asks - got the term sheet.

Cultural Principle
Restraint is respect. Precision signals mastery and spares the listener.

Takeaway
Design for 10 minutes: story, value, risk, ask. Stop where trust begins. Offer appendices only if invited.
