About this Event
Investor Ready Event
Are you planning to raise investment in 2026/27?
If the opportunity came today — would you be ready?
As Gary Beckwith, founder of City Cruises PLC, recently told us:
“Stay ready, so when the time comes, you don’t have to get ready.”
Investors rarely fund potential alone.
They fund prepared founders — those with clarity, structure, positioning, and genuine investor readiness.
If you want to understand what investors actually look for — and how to position your business properly — join us for this focused, high-value, in-person session in London.
