Ready to Pitch? Make Sure You Understand Your Funding Opportunities!

Securing funding is a recurring challenge for businesses, not just for startups, but also for more established companies. At our upcoming event, we will explore these questions in depth with a panel of seasoned investors, business leaders, and experts in intellectual property and financing. The event will feature presentations from a range of perspectives: evaluators who assess investment opportunities, entrepreneurs who have successfully navigated the funding journey, and consultants with years of experience in the field.
