Helping Leicestershire’s creative and digital agencies find cash

Creative and digital agencies based in Leicestershire can get support finding the money they need to grow, by attending a free webinar from the Business Gateway tomorrow (20 January).

Finance and funding expert, Lawrie Chandler, founder of the company Edale, will share information and advice on how to find and secure the funding available specifically for creative and digital companies.

Mr Chandler is highly experienced and has delivered several webinars for the Business Gateway, all of which have been very well attended by Leicestershire businesses during the past year.

Discussing his track record in supporting creative and digital businesses, Mr Chandler said: “Edale has assisted numerous creative professionals who have set up on their own, by putting a simple funding plan together as they start out on freelancing; then we’ve helped them secure funds to invest in hardware and software to get started.

“A few thousand pounds in the early days is a real help and we know that that help is available. We’ve helped creative people at different stages of their journey too; we helped a graduate to secure match-funding for a digital app as he graduated. For an established creative agency, we supported them to secure funding to develop a new product to complement the design side of their business.”

Any creative or digital agency in Leicestershire is welcome to join the webinar which runs tomorrow, Thursday 10am – 11.30pm. To book your place, visit the Business Gateway website here: http://bity.ly/3JGIZHr or search in www.bizgateway.org.uk/events
