Confidence in investor meetings doesn't mean being certain about the outcome, but rather being prepared and convinced of your vision and plan. Founders should focus on showcasing their understanding of the market, the problem they're solving, and their strategy for execution. It's about demonstrating a clear thought process, a strong team, and a well-researched plan, which can instill confidence in investors.
