About this Event

Equity investment insights workshop with David Chan

This is part two of our four-part intensive introduction to business financing strategies, supported by the British Business Bank.

In part one, we heard from Luke Pullford (Head of Minerva Angels), who walked the audience through best practices, including useful hints and tips.

In part two, we'll hear the founders' perspective. David Chan is a serial entrepreneur and an exited founder. He'll share his advice and guidance on securing early-stage investment.
