The British Business Bank will be hosting Business Finance Week between 6-10 November 2023. Through a series of 27 in-person events, webinars and more across the UK’s nations and regions, the British Business Bank is helping smaller businesses learn all about the different finance options available to support them in growing their business.
Each day will be centred round a key theme, giving businesses the opportunity to hear from experts in their field on a varied range of subjects:
Monday - Taking your first step: Starting your business with finance
The first step is always the hardest, and many founders aren’t always aware of the financial help that they can access to help them succeed.
From business loans and grants to angel investment and pre-seed funding, there’s a whole ecosystem of support available but choosing the right product can be a challenge.
Smaller businesses can listen to leading experts on how to access finance and find the right product to make business dreams a reality.
Tuesday - Growing your business: Exploring finance options for growth
Access to finance is essential for any business looking to scale up and stay ahead of the competition. Smaller businesses can often struggle to secure the right type of financing they need. By exploring all options available and by working with finance providers and investors who understand the businesses’ unique needs, SME’s can access the financing that's right for them, no matter where or who they are.
Smaller businesses can join us for a series of sessions that demystify business finance for growth.
Wednesday - Thriving with finance: Unlocking your working capital.
Working capital products can be powerful tools for smaller businesses looking to realise their full potential.
By accessing additional capital on demand, SMEs can future-proof their business plans - whether that’s starting up, scaling up, or staying ahead, ready for whatever comes next.
Smaller businesses can learn more about how working capital can help their business thrive at one of our events.
Thursday - Unlocking innovation: Building the business of tomorrow.
Innovation is the key to unlocking the full potential of business and building the business of tomorrow.
Whether your clients are a cutting-edge start-up bringing the latest product to market or a business simply looking to stay competitive and meet the needs of their customers, using finance to stay ahead of the curve is vital.
SMEs can join us for a day of inspiring events showcasing how businesses can embrace innovation.
Friday - What next? Business Finance is just the start
Financing can be a powerful tool for smaller businesses, enabling them to fund growth, invest in new equipment, or take advantage of unexpected opportunities.
By accessing finance multiple times throughout the lifetime of their business, entrepreneurs can unlock its full potential and achieve greater success than ever before.
