The event has 4 parts:
Expo: Meet and talk to the experts at the stands who can discuss with you how your business may be able to take advantage of different funding opportunities. Start the process right there and then discussing the needs of YOUR business.
Challenge the Funder: See the top speakers together on stage helping you to resolve your funding challenges.
Consultation: If you're serious about funding this is your chance to get the funding process started on the day. These advisers are neutral, ie they don't have a particular funding strategy of product they want to sell you; instead they will take a holistic view with you to get you funded. Please Note: You must book the "Consultation" ticket ahead of the event.
Networking: Don't forget the room is full of owners and founders of high growth businesses just like yours. People who are going places and are keen to get there sooner. Bring plenty of business cards -- you never know who you'll meet.

About Funding Connector
This is our fourth year running our Funding Connector event. In 2017 we plan to branch out to cover all important areas of funding. The feedback from the last three years has been overwhelmingly positive—proving there is a huge need in the business community for this information and people were very excited to learn in detail what options are available to them.
"Thanks so much for putting on the event last night. I didn’t know what the funding choices were for my business to expand. It taught me a lot about possibilities and what sorts of businesses fit with what funding. Brilliant evening."
