Finance Yorkshire Launch Events March 2010

We would like to invite you to join us at one of our Finance Yorkshire Launch Events to be held in March 2010.

Finance Yorkshire will be unveiled by The Rt Hon Rosie Winterton MP, Minister for Regional Economic Development and Co-ordination, at the Leeds event on Friday 12th March. Further events will follow throughout the region, see details below.

Finance Yorkshire is the new £90million fund set up to provide businesses across the Yorkshire and Humber region with funding to start and grow.

Planned to start investing in early Spring, the Fund will provide seedcorn, loan and equity investments ranging from £15,000 to £2million, to help small and medium businesses raise the funding they need alongside investment from the commercial market.

The Fund has been created using investment from Yorkshire Forward, ERDF from the European Union and the European Investment Bank and for the first time will provide region wide access to finance for all qualifying businesses.

Come to one of our launch events to hear presentations from:

• The Rt Hon Rosie Winterton MP (Leeds event only)
• Yorkshire Forward
• Members of Finance Yorkshire's Board of Directors
• Finance Yorkshire's Seedcorn, Business Loan and Equity teams - hear key messages for intermediaries
• Question and Answer session
• There will also be an opportunity to ask questions of the panel at the end of each event

So, join us for a buffet breakfast on either:
