Stand Out with these 5 Must-Have Science Visuals for Your Tech Company
When you are building a slide deck to secure funding or spark investor interest, visuals can make the difference between a presentation that resonates and one that falls flat. The right images do more than decorate. They clarify your story, highlight your strengths, and help potential investors see the promise of your work.
At SayoStudio, we collaborate with biotech and tech companies to design visuals that distill complexity into clear, compelling slides. Here are five must-have images to include in your investor presentation deck and why they matter.
1. Who You Are
Why it matters: Investors are not just funding an idea. They are people that want to connect, back the people behind it, and the end users whose lives will be improved by your technology. A “Who We Are” slide is your chance to showcase the human element of your company. This slide should introduce your mission, your values, and the audience you serve.
How it helps:
- Builds an immediate connection with your audience
- Frames your company story with clarity and authenticity
- Sets the stage for the technical details that follow
Use imagery that emphasizes connection, such as photos of your team, visuals that represent your impact, or graphics that reflect your company’s culture.
2. How Your Technology Works
Why it matters: Investors need to understand your innovation. A technical slide that explains your core technology builds credibility and highlights your expertise. Tailor the level of detail to your audience: use more technical depth for industry insiders or simplified diagrams for general investors. Graphics are especially powerful here: they not only clarify complex ideas but also emphasize what sets your company apart from competitors, positioning your innovation for success.
How it helps:
- Build trust and clarity around complex science
- Make your innovation more memorable and shareable
- Support both outreach and technical due diligence
3. Overview of What Your Tech Company Does
Why it matters: Not every investor has a technical background, and even those who do will appreciate a concise recap. A summary slide distills the big picture. It shows what problem you are solving, why it matters, and the impact your technology can have.
How it helps:
- Bridges the gap between technical and non-technical audiences
- Reinforces your mission in simple, visual terms
- Keeps your core message clear and memorable
Think of this slide as the one that appeals to anyone in the room, no matter their expertise.
4. Timeline to Market Pipeline
Why it matters: Your path to market is part of your value proposition. A visual roadmap of your milestones shows where you have been, where you are now, and what lies ahead. For biotech and pharma companies, this often means highlighting research phases, trials, and regulatory checkpoints. For tech companies, it may mean prototypes, beta testing, and product launches.
How it helps:
- Clarifies milestones for investors and collaborators
- Communicates transparency and planning
- Reinforces credibility through visualized progress
As your company grows and your tech develops, you’ll want to expand these graphics to include information about supply chain and safety/drug phase details.
5. Org Chart with Principal People Visual
Why it matters: Investors and collaborators want to know who’s behind the science. A thoughtfully designed org chart or “who’s who” image helps clarify your leadership structure, expertise, and team roles in a visual snapshot.
How it helps:
- Puts faces to the company name
- Demonstrates team structure and interdisciplinary strength
- Can be adapted for pitch decks, investor pages, and internal onboarding
Visualizing Your Pitch
An effective slide deck is more than text and numbers. It is a visual story that introduces who you are, demonstrates your technology, summarizes your impact, and outlines your future. The right images transform your presentation into a narrative that investors can follow and believe in.
