3. Founding Team Support & Coordination:

• Provide direct support to founders for meetings: preparation of pitch decks, one-pagers, and briefing documents.

• Handle crucial coordination between clients, partners, and the internal team.

4. Strategic Operations:

• Plan, organize, and manage the monthly calendar of activities, campaigns, and events.
