💰 One week away: Non-Dilutive Capital: Secure a Strong Balance Sheet in Uncertain Times | June 15
As global uncertainty impacts the public and private markets, entrepreneurs are being forced to navigate a new, new normal. Many questions remain about the impact of changing global economic trends on businesses and what CEOs can do to position their company for success.
Non-dilutive capital is one way leaders can choose to shore up their balance sheets, as it enables founders to retain control of their business and instead focus on long-term growth rather than a fast ROI.
Join this event to learn about the different types of non-dilutive capital and to hear first-hand experiences of local companies that leverage this type of financing to scale their business. The panel discussion includes:
Brianna Blaney, Co-Founder & CEO, Pocketed Grant Platform
Steve Lowry, VP, Technology Banking, Silicon Valley Bank
John Can Karayel, Head of Investments, Boast
Braden Parker, Co-Founder & CEO, Casca Shoes
Thanks to our event partners SEGEV LLP, Silicon Valley Bank, Downtown Vancouver Business Improvement Association, Boast, and TTT Studios.
