Editor's Notes
- (Introduce yourself and the presentation) [click]
- If you ’re looking for funding for a new business or to expand and grow your existing business it can sometimes feel as though you are trying to find your way through the fog. Then all of these terms like BIG, ERDF, CDFA, Convergence etc emerge from the fog, but they themselves can be equally as confusing as the white space until it ’s all becomes a blur of funds, acronyms and jargon. The fact is that some of these will be applicable and some won ’t. If you have tried to navigate through this you will realise it ’s not that easy. [click]
- SWIG can help you navigate. This doesn ’t mean to say that we will be able to always help fund every idea. Some funding options are grants and some are loans. Some are only available to start-up companies, some only to young people. We specialise in understanding your business, finding the right option or options for you and making sure you have the necessary things in place to secure not only finding, but also your future.
