Funding your next stage of growth

Every growing business reaches a point where it needs more capital, whether that's for working capital, hiring or expansion. How you find that capital can shape the business for years to come and getting it wrong can cost far more than the money itself.

In this Micro-Learning session we bring together a founder who has lived this decision firsthand and an advisor who has watched founders make this call across many different businesses. Together they will cut through the noise on the two most common routes, debt and equity: when debt actually works in your favour, what equity really costs beyond the headline percentage and how to know which route fits your business right now.

Whether you are weighing your first funding decision or rethinking how you have funded growth so far, this session will give you a clearer way to think it through.

You'll leave with:

• A clear framework for weighing debt against equity at any stage of growth
• What lenders and investors are each actually looking for before they say yes
• The hidden cost of equity that goes beyond the percentage you give away
• The questions to ask yourself before you commit to either route
