Virtual investor webinar: Get to know your investor before you pitch
DI aims, through a series of virtual webinars, to provide companies with insight into the mandates, strategies and focus areas of various investors and financing providers – before they initiate their first dialogue or pitch their case.
About the webinar series
This webinar is part of a series of informational webinars exploring the different funding and investment opportunities available to startups and scaleups in the Danish ecosystem. Throughout the series, we will invite a range of relevant investors, funds and financing partners to present their opportunities, criteria and perspectives - giving founders a practical overview of the different funding options available as their companies grow
In the first webinar in the series, you will meet the Export and Investment Fund of Denmark (EIFO). EIFO is Danish companies’ joint gateway to state-backed risk financing and offers, among other things, loans and guarantees to Danish companies.
The webinar will focus on EIFO’s loan financing options. You will gain insight into how loans and guarantees can support investments in areas such as production, the green transition, digitalization and international expansion. You will also learn more about how EIFO can participate in financing – either directly or in collaboration with your company’s bank.
The webinar is relevant for companies and start-ups within biosolutions, cleantech and deep tech that want to learn more about their options for financing growth and development.
The webinar lasts one hour and concludes with an opportunity to ask questions to EIFO.
