Shaun Edlin will offer insights into equity crowdfunding at an upcoming workshop.
Experts from Snowball Effect will jointly run a Rotorua X Mastery Series workshop next week to help local businesses understand options for raising funds to expand their businesses.
Rotorua X chairman Darren McGarvie said he hoped many businesses took the opportunity to attend the two-hour workshop on raising funds and
capital.
"Many businesses need funds to grow and reach their full potential. When personal savings and resources have been tapped out, they need to cast the net a little wider and look at other options."
The first half of the workshop will cover traditional lending, and tips and tricks on securing business bank lending. Mr McGarvie said he also wanted businesses to look at other options including equity crowdfunding. Experts Snowball Effect were best suited to talk businesses about those options.
Snowball Effect has helped raise more than $19 million for business ventures in its 18 months of operation, and claims more than 70 per cent of market share in the fledgling industry.
