Raising money can be tough and time consuming, taking away time that you could spend running your company. Even worse, not only are the odds against you, you have to sell part of your company to get the money. Well, this is not always true. There are some alternative ways of financing your company. Explore R&D tax credits, Vendor and bank financing, and SBIR grants with our panel.

You are probably closer to getting comfortable with selling than you think. In this workshop, Marc Kitz, a sales coach with 37 years of experience selling technology services, will help you become more comfortable and confident with selling by leveraging your everyday activities including preparing for meetings and asking questions. This workshop is for everyone nervous about selling and especially new entrepreneurs who know their product or service but could use some support in telling their story.
