Pitching for Investment Masterclass
Dec 11 7 Start: 10:00 End: 13:00
Raising investment for your business is not an easy task. You need to decide what type of investment is right for you, who to approach, and decide how much you will require. On top of all that, your presentation needs to be 'perfect'.
If you are looking for investment and are looking for help to ensure your pitch is perfect, then come along to our Pitching for Investment Masterclass at Hillington Park Innovation Centre. Our main speaker is Brendan Waters, Director of Corporate Finance from Johnston Carmichael who will be telling you how to produce an investment pitch that stands out amongst the hundreds of pitches received by investors each year. Having been involved in scores of equity investment deals as an advisor to companies and investors, Brendan will also provide tips and practical advice to help you shape your investment pitch to give it the best chance of success.
Alongside Brendan, we will also be joined by a large investment company who will discuss what types of investment they are looking for, how they assess an investment proposal and what makes a deal really stand out from the rest.
