International Business Finance Forum
9 October 2008,
Warsaw Stock Exchange, Warsaw
As your business develops, so does your need to access capital for growth. What’s the optimum form of financing your business? A bank loan? Support from a business angels? Will your business interest venture capital? Or is it time for a flotation on a primary or secondary markets (Warsaw Stock Exchange or New Connect – or maybe London?) Is there any EU money available? What are the pros and cons of each form of business finance? How much control over your business are you prepared to relinquish?
The international Business Finance Forum is aimed getting Polish and British entrepreneurs together with international financiers to discuss business opportunities and financing strategies – and to swap business cards. The forum will provide delegates with the most up-to-date information from the best-informed sources. Simultaneous translation will be available throughout the day. The presentations are followed by a Forum Roundtable, at which panelists will discuss the key issues highlighted during the day. A cocktail reception will follow, offering an excellent chance to network.
