SUMMARY:The Money Magnet Masterclass - Malanda
DESCRIPTION:Boost your idea’s power to attract investment.\n\nThis half-day masterclass is designed for people and established enterprises with innovative ideas they want to take to the market\, such as SMEs\, start-ups and innovation teams within larger organisations. \nDid you know… \n\nAccess to additional funding is cited by Australian businesses as the biggest barrier to innovation.\nThe Advance Queensland initiative has allocated $420M of competitive grant funding for businesses to help them bring innovative ideas to market.\nPrivate equity-backed firms\, on average\, grow their workforces at a compound annual growth rate of 27.6% over a five-year ownership period.\nIn the last five years\, venture capital funds have invested over $650M into tech startups based in Australia.\n\nLearn how to communicate the potential value of your innovative ideas to grant assessors\, venture capital firms\, industry backers\, and other potential project partners. \nBoth the Queensland and federal governments are offering unprecedented funding\, tax incentives and other investment initiatives so that business can benefit from commercialising ideas and intellectual assets – but many innovators lack the confidence or know-how to successfully stimulate interest from financial supporters. \nHaving a game-changing idea isn’t enough. You need a clear value proposition\, sound business case\, and a solid understanding of what public and private investors expect from your pitch or proposal. \nThe Money Magnet Masterclass explains how to: \n\nconvince selection panels/investors of your idea’s value\npitch its market potential and your opportunity\nstructure an effective project plan\ndemonstrate capacity to deliver a return on investment\ncommunicate your team’s capability\nmanage risks and remove ‘red flags’\n\nFind out what else the masterclass covers.  \nOver the past year\, more than 250 businesses have invested their time in coming to our Pathways workshops. In surveys\, nearly 60% have reported they’ve already taken their innovation plans further. That means they’re on their way to becoming more competitive and successful. \nAre you ready for your innovative ideas to attract investment? \nRegister now – see below for details. \nRegistrations close 26 June\, unless all places have been taken sooner. \n
