Description

Accessing New Capital: Public & Private Financing, between 10:30am-12pm on November 25th at The Berkshire Innovation Center. This year's cohort consists of 8 businesses, who have already completed 10 3.5 hour sessions and BBEC will invite other BIPOC business owners from the community to attend so that they can meet you too. Each Panelist will be given a minute to introduce themselves, handout business cards, and answer questions. Some of these questions will include: What are the (capital access) opportunities and where do we locate them? What do financiers look for in a business? What indicators, ratios, or data should be supplied? What pleases and alarms them? What questions should we be prepared to answer in order to secure funding? Questions on credit for panel Q & A: Discuss when personal versus business credit is used. How does someone establish business credit? What resources are available to help someone repair bad credit? Please confirm your organization's interest in participating, and please provide your confirmation to aj@berkshirebec.org and cc along chief@berkshirebec.org. We hope to see you there! Thank you, in advance, for your interest and your support of this year's Interise Cohort.
