Free programme to help your business secure funding

In partnership with LIFT, OneTech and the boroughs of Camden, Islington and Tower Hamlets, we have funded a free four-week course to assist businesses in the creative, science and digital sectors in gaining funding.

The Funding Readiness programme is designed for existing businesses within these sectors with proven traction or revenue who are in need of support and connections to scale their business from early stage to a Series A seed funding.

What will you learn?

After a series of interactive workshops, you will have the opportunity to pitch to John Spindler (CEO of Capital Enterprise, Co-Founder of AI Seed and the London Co-Investment Fund). Plus, you will be introduced to relevant investors to help you unlock the funding needed to scale your business.
