Most new businesses need funding in order to grow and a range of finance options are available. Investment finance is often seen as the main route to developing ideas and turning them into a successful enterprise but it comes at a cost; equity.
The amount of equity you have to give away will depend on what stage your business is at but you can help by appearing organised and looking professional. Make it easy for investors to understand your business and see the realistic potential and it could save you equity in the long run.
What does it take to attract investors, and how do you pitch them once you've got them interested?
In this workshop we'll go through:
Creating pitch decks and business plans
The fundamentals of pitching
Guidelines and structure
SEIS & EIS
Preferential tax rates for investors (no capital gains tax)
We'll also be inviting an entrepreneur that has closed rounds of investment, to share that experience too.
Jon Dawson and Becky Shields are partners at Kingston Smith, a firm of accountants based in London.

Jon also writes a weekly Business Doctor column in the Sunday Times.
We're running this for you, and co-creating it with you.
We've designed it to help you build your business, and increase your impact.
