 At some point, every startup needs capital, but it’s well known that
banks aren’t lending money and traditional investment methods don’t have the
same returns they once had. Join former Dragon’s Den investor, Doug Richard for an informative workshop where
he’ll highlight new and innovative services that allow new and small
businesses access to funds and provide investors greater potential returns.
Learn how to identify if or when you really need additional capital, understand
what kind of funding best fits your need and demystify the intricacies of
accessing it- whether it be from VC or angel investors, loans or crowd funding.
