Description:

Looking for funding options to help accelerate your company’s growth?

Look beyond expensive equity financing and examine non-dilutive funding (Any kind of funding that does not require you to give away equity or ownership) options. Geared toward early-stage entrepreneurs, this webinar surveys how to effectively leverage non-dilutive financing sources – specifically SR&ED (The Canadian Scientific Research and Experimental Development Tax Incentive Program) and government grant programs.

Join Bhavik Chauhan, Vice President, Business Development & Marketing from OKR Financial, to learn how to access non-dilutive financing and how OKR Financial can support your startup. The session includes dedicated time for Q&A – so bring your questions.

We’ll cover:

• An overview of the SR&ED Tax Incentive Program and how you can use SR&ED financing to accelerate your company’s growth.
• Simple strategies to maximize your SR&ED tax credit claims.
• Best practices when applying for government funding.
• An overview of the different types of government grant programs.
• How grant consulting firms and OKR Financial can support you throughout the non-dilutive financing process.
