#BusinessFinanceWeek returns this November 2023, supporting new and growing businesses
The annual campaign returns from 6-10th November 2023, with each day centred on a different aspect of business finance and bringing with it daily expert-led events, free resources, success stories and more. As well as other partners from across the UK, Let’s Do Business Finance is joining in with the campaign to spread awareness of business finance options and break down barriers to growth.
During the five consecutive days of the campaign, there will be daily events both online and offline centred around each theme, giving entrepreneurs and business owners the opportunity to connect with experts and network with others, while learning about the different finance options available to support their individual growth goals, from traditional loans and grants to crowdfunding and angel investors. The campaign will also span over social media – raising visibility of the different finance options available for businesses to tap into, and of the variety of providers out there who can help.
The themes for each day are:
Monday 6th November – Taking your first step: Starting your business with finance
Tuesday 7th November – Growing your business: Exploring finance options for growth
Wednesday 8th November – Thriving with finance: Unlocking your working capital
Thursday 9th November – Unlocking innovation: Building the business of tomorrow
Friday 10th November – What next? Business finance is just the start
As well as promoting the events on offer from the British Business Bank, Let’s Do Business Finance will be joining in and taking to social media to share free resources to aid business owners in creating a successful finance application, access support and more – as well as hosting a Q&A session on Instagram and Facebook to answer some of the most common questions and misconceptions around business finance.
