Challenge the Funder - Learn How to Raise Capital for Your Business
Event description
Background & Synopsis
As Australia is hurting under the weight of lockdown-fatigue and loss of direction, many realise the “disease we can’t see” was the least of
our troubles. Many people choose to see what is ahead of us as an amazing opportunity for a better beginning, a stronger business and more growth. However, this often requires capital.
Welcome to Challenge the Funder!
