As an entrepreneur or SME, if you need capital to start or expand your business, you will likely turn
to a bank for a loan, but did you know there are alternative options? Banks can offer short or long
term business loans as well as funding for specific projects, but you may not be in a position to
apply for a loan. In this case you could turn to an Angel Investor, a Venture Capital firm or
Crowdfunding.
Angel investors are individuals who support a business financially, investing their private capital
in small and/or new enterprises. Typically these funds are a source of seed capital, money needed to
start a business, covering the initial operating expenses. Venture capitalists generally invest
larger amounts in companies wishing to expand, usually referred to as growth or expansion capital.
Both types of investors will take into account their ROI (return on investment) and may invest in
exchange for shares or a seat on the board of your company. Another avenue you may wish to explore
for capital is crowdfunding. This involves raising funds through the contributions of a large number
of people, usually via specialist websites.
On this site you will find information about these types of funding, how you can go about accessing
them, and why you should contact us to be listed in our internal database for potential investors to
find. If you are an investor wishing to support entrepreneurs and SMEs, find out how and why you
should provide your information here, and state what type of businesses you are keen to support so
that we can connect you with the most suitable entrepreneurs. We also encourage investors to share
their expertise and experience and sign up to be a mentor by joining the Associates of The MYP Network Partners to help
