An event for entrepreneurs looking for money, the right contacts, acceleration programs and mentors to start and grow their business.

Are you starting a business and need money/advice on product/service development? Or are you already generating initial revenue and want exponential sales growth and expansion into new markets? Perhaps you are in final discussions with a private investor for an investment and want to double it?

If you answered at least one question with YES, then this event is for you, as we will present 3 different tenders and funding programs to put the money to work.

You will get the most important information about the tenders, learn about the evaluation criteria, the pre-selection process, important dates and deadlines for the application and many tips on how to successfully participate in the tender.

Funding and programs from the Slovene Enterprise Fund, which we will talk about

• P2 - receive a grant of 54,000 EUR for the development of products/services.
• SK75 - receive a convertible loan of 75,000 EUR for sales growth and expansion into new markets

• Review of other sources of financing offered by the Fund and SID Bank.
• Content support in the form of advice, mentoring and acceleration programs available in the local and national business support environment.

30 participants will be able to join us online, via the Zoom platform.
