The Supplier Finance Institute, hosted by the Business Consortium Fund, invites you to join our free virtual workshop on developing a business plan.

Whether or not you’re pitching to investors or lenders, starting a business requires a solid plan. A well-crafted business plan provides direction, helps validate your ideas, and outlines the steps needed to achieve your goals. It also serves as a roadmap for both short- and long-term growth.

If you plan to seek funding—whether from investors or through a business loan—many financial institutions will require a business plan as part of the application process.

Key Takeaways:
• Understand the essential components of a business plan
• Learn how to create a business plan you can use to guide your growth
• Prepare a plan suitable for sharing with lenders, investors, or other stakeholders

Accessibility: Live closed captioning will be enabled for all Zoom sessions (CC button available).

Host: An Phan, Chief Programs Officer
