Turning to government assisted and other non-traditional financing

• Entrepreneurs' Forum of Greater Philadelphia, Inc.

With the recent difficulties in the credit markets, good companies and good projects are often struggling to find financing even when they are growing, have good assets, and are firmly in the black. Government-assisted and other non-traditional financing are more frequently being relied upon as the primary available credit to make projects happen rather than as a cheaper alternative that allow for better projects. But even in good times, these programs have a substantial role to play in encouraging growth and economic development across the region’s fabric. This program will discuss the range of options available to entrepreneurial businesses in Greater Philadelphia and will focus on what a company can do and document to attract these resources.
