Green Financing for Green Businesses April 7, 2009

Come learn about sources of funding available for green projects amidst the credit freeze! Urban Solutions presents "Green Financing for Green Businesses," a free-of-charge workshop on the availability of capital for green projects. This unique event features speakers from a diverse range of funding sources including a traditional bank, a non-profit lender, and an angel investor to address your financing needs regardless of the stage of your green project. Whether you are looking to start or expand a business, install solar panels or replace outdated equipment with energy efficient gear, green financing is available.
