Equity Funding Guide
Forward
InterTradeIreland first teamed up with the Irish Venture Capital Association in 2003 to produce the very first “Guide to Venture Capital”.
We are delighted that our partnership with the IVCA continues and we are now publishing our eleventh edition with a new title of ‘A Guide to Equity Funding’ to reflect the wider variety of funding available to businesses. It is a sign of how dynamic and flexible the equity market is on the island that we are already onto edition eleven.
Demand for InterTradeIreland’s range of
equity supports for early stage companies remains high. Companies can avail of one- to-one clinics with our Equity Advisor at various locations across the island. The annual All-Island Seedcorn Investor Readiness Competition continues to attract a high level of quality entries.
Regional finalists since the competition began in 2003 have shared in €5.5m of prize money
