Funding readiness and access: A two-sided coin

This episode dives into growth readiness and accessing funding. We take a closer look at the vital role that funding intermediaries play in closing the funding gap, as they help businesses become funding-ready and improve their chances for approval. Furthermore, Sprenger unpacks common challenges such as cash flow that she has noted cause entrepreneurs to turn to debt, but what can also help them manage these better.
