Become investor ready with one day masterclass

Opportunity Peterborough, in collaboration with Gate2Growth, is hosting a free one day masterclass to advise Peterborough businesses on how to attract investment and become investor ready. The event will take place on Thursday 7th November at the Eco Innovation Centre in Peterborough.

The class will be delivered by Uffe Bundgaard-Jørgensen, a renowned international consultant with more than 40 years of finance experience having lectured in economics at the University of Copenhagen. Uffe has already delivered more than 70 masterclasses across Europe, so is well positioned to pass on his knowledge and expertise to Peterborough-based enterprises seeking investment.

This one-off, INTERREG IVC funded event, is part of the European project ‘Innofun’ which aims to support businesses in securing investment to assist with their growth plans. With advice on creating business plans and intellectual property rights strategy, to increasing knowledge on how investors think and therefore how to negotiate with them, this free class includes a vast amount of positive points to help businesses gain investment.

Neil Darwin, chief executive of economic development company Opportunity Peterborough, said: “This event is a fantastic opportunity for local businesses to benefit from the vast experience of a market expert and become better prepared to attract investment. With green shoots starting to appear in the local economy, it’s a great time for businesses to look at their growth plans.”
