Innovation SuperNetwork's Pathways to Funding events programme continues on Thursday 25 April at TusPark, Newcastle with the next workshop focussing on how to get your business ready for investment.

Access to Finance specialists will look in depth at Skills Formation, Financial Projections and Legal & IP Management.

Skills Formation

It involves identifying required skill sets, considering cofounders, advisors, and core team members, establishing roles, responsibilities, and communication channels, and officially forming the team.

Financial Projections

Businesses understand financial basics, define financial assumptions, project revenues and expenses, forecast cash flows, evaluate profitability, and document detailed financial projections.

Legal & IP Management

Entrepreneurs understand legal requirements, EIS/SEIS, shareholders agreements, commercial agreements, manage IP rights, apply for necessary patents, trademarks, or copyrights, and complete all legal and IP tasks.
