Alternative and Non-Dilutive Funding Sources: Know Your Options

Equity is not the only way to fund your company. This panel covers the non-dilutive funding that founders can access beyond the always elusive equity round: commercial banking loans and credit, revenue-based financing, grants, prizes and more. You'll hear from and meet the industry experts. Learn how these options work and where to access them; what you need to apply; what they cost; who and what stage of growth they suit best. Generously hosted and supported by First Citizens Innovation Bank, formerly known as SVB. Doors open early for pre-panel networking, with a social hour to follow. Space will be limited, so, register now to hold your spot.
