The Lender Match Maker event includes the opportunity to attend two of the following breakout sessions...

Start-ups and Access to Capital... Realistic options for getting your business off the ground.
Expansion and Growth... Choosing the best financing resource for growing your business.
Your Financial Statements... What story are they telling?
Alternative Funding... Alternatives to a traditional bank loan.

Afternoon MatchMaking Sessions allow one-on-one meetings with up to ten funding resources.

This will be the only Business - Lender Match Maker event in the state this year, so
