Funding the Future

Money, money, money! It’s no longer funny if you haven’t got it or haven’t got the right kind. There is however lots of it around, if you know where to look. From debt to equity, crowdfunding and peer to peer lending, the venture capital market, angels and private equity providers are sitting on cash mountains. You just need to know how to climb to the summit, in the right protective gear and with a robust rope or parachute.

This session will provide a road map to explain:

What are the different types of funding available?
How to safely navigate the finance market jungle?
