We’re delighted to be partnering with Firstport to bring you this online webinar where you can find out more about how small loans can support your enterprise.
What is Step Up?
Firstport’s Step Up programme offers 0% interest free loans from £5,000 to £30,000 to help social enterprises scale up proven income-generating activities. Whether it’s a product that’s in high demand, a marketing campaign that boosts trade, or more equipment to support growth – Step Up is designed to back what’s already working for an organisation. And YOU design the repayment plan.
Step Up could be the perfect fit if your organisation requires some extra funding in the run up to the festive period – whether it’s to assist with the purchase of extra stock, or to help with resourcing services over the busy festive period.
This is a great opportunity to better understand how Step Up could support your organisation – especially if you’re exploring repayable finance for the first time. When you have confidence in your trading revenue, for instance during busy periods, you can feel more confident in considering repayable finance.
What to expect from the session:
Led by Lauren Scott, Investment Manager at Firstport, this workshop will cover:
- What Step Up does
- Who it’s for
- How to apply
- What happens after investment
We’ll also hear firsthand from Johannes Petersen, founder and chief executive of Àban Outdoor Limited, on their experience of applying for a Step Up loan.
