Essentials of Non-equity Financing Workshop October 4, 2006

Financing is a difficult subject for all entrepreneurs. Determining where your company fits into the continuum can be a huge challenge. Too often entrepreneurs shoot immediately for equity financing from angel and venture capital investors. This workshop will help you understand the full range of non equity financing options, where and when they may make sense for your company and what it takes to get ready to work with these sources. Topics include conventional bank lines and loans, venture debt, venture leasing, convertible debt, factoring, government program grants and loans and partner or vendor financing.

Cost: $65 for members and $115 for non-members
