Understanding Finance for Business workshops – January – June 2010
If you are starting or growing a business and you’re looking for funding of more than £10,000, you may need help to work through the different options to identify which type of funding will work best for your business. Grant? Bank? Friends & Family? Business angel? Venture Capitalist? There’s a bewildering choice of options, some of which come with strings attached, begging a host of questions. Sign up for “Understanding Finance for Business” and you’ll get the answers you need from experts in business finance. The programme is free of charge and starts with an informative and interactive workshop before progressing to more detailed workshops and/or mentoring. Click here for more details
