Please join us on March 1st for an Innovators Chat entitled ‘The Key to Creating Opportunity: Government Grants’ with our sponsor from Grant Thornton, Christina Albert and Sudha Correia.
Government grants and incentives can play a pivotal role in helping businesses with export creation, expansion, hiring, training, and innovation projects. With the wide variety of programs the government has to offer, it is important to understand how they can be used to maximize opportunity. This presentation will discuss major grants, their funding parameters, and how they can support your growth. We will be answering some of the most common questions; What grants are out there? What do they fund? How do you know if you qualify? And if you do, how do you make a claim? For all you future-focused business owners this discussion should not be missed.
