Are you tired of pouring time into investment applications only to face rejection? Do daunting forms leave you frustrated? Are you a freelancer or a SME in the creative industries? We can help!
About the Workshop:
Securing investments, whether grants, loans, or equity, is vital for success in the creative and cultural sector. But there’s an art to winning it.
Catherine Johns, Executive Director of Dance City and former CEO of Kielder Observatory will help you answer those awkward questions and develop an approach that works for you. Catherine has been hunting down and capturing investment for decades ranging from thousands to millions. During the workshop, we will cover the basics of creating a compelling manifesto for investment and then get into those awkward questions, with the opportunity for a one-on-one meeting with Catherine to receive tailored feedback on your application approach.
