Finance programmeThu, 06/11/2008 - 10:12 — adminOne of the significant problems that all business developers suffer from is a lack of finance, whether the finance is needed to start a business, deal with a stage of growth, enter new markets, research and develop new products or diversify services. The OIE has two important instruments to address this problem: The INNOVADORS Prize (publicly financed) and its investors (privately financed). However, the OIE also wishes to improve access to capital from the banks since this encourages a rigorous strategic planning, so limiting the business risks to which creditors are exposed. |
