What happens when you have amazing technology but can't convince investors? Dr. Therese Canares from Johns Hopkins built CurieDx, an AI app that can diagnose strep throat from photos with 88% accuracy - better than most doctors! But when she pitched $4 million to VCs, they weren't buying her strategy. The problem wasn't her innovation, it was her execution plan. She wanted to target hospitals, small clinics, AND regular consumers all at once. The investors' brutal feedback? "Do one thing well instead of many things poorly." This is a masterclass in why focus matters more than features in startup pitches!
