8 April - Ask ICAS: Funding business recovery and expansion
Event summary
Whether it’s planning a new venture or growing, diversifying or restructuring an existing enterprise, you’ll need funding to complete the project before the rewards can be seen. And when lockdown eases, many businesses will be returning to operations, but this will incur costs before generating any revenue.
Our panel of experts discussed the availability and accessibility of different funding options to help businesses choose the most appropriate finance for them and their stakeholders.
