As a start-up or growing entrepreneur, financing is crucial, yet the range of available options is often complex and difficult to navigate. What are the short- and long-term pros and cons of a loan compared to a grant or subsidy? Which type of financing fits which stage of your business? And what options are actually available?

What can you expect?

During this How2Finance event, we will explore the full spectrum of financing instruments, from early-stage funding to growth capital, and from grants and subsidies to participation by Business Angels. The session is not only informative but also highly practical and hands-on. During the speed dating sessions, entrepreneurs will have the opportunity to speak one-on-one with financing experts. This offers plenty of room to discuss your own situation and explore suitable options together, with no obligation.

Topics covered during How2Finance include:

  1. Financing instruments offered by RVO Netherlands
  2. Investment opportunities through Oost NL
  3. Financing options available at Invest-NL
  4. Grants and subsidies presented by Catalyze
  5. Subordinated innovation loans from Rabobank
  6. Crowdfunding opportunities via Invesdor Benelux
  7. De Groeiversneller (Gelderland)
  8. The Business Angel Network

In addition, an entrepreneur will share first-hand experiences with financing their business.

You will leave with concrete tips and practical advice to help you take the next step in securing financing.
