Is lack of access to capital really a problem for food businesses that are solving social and environmental problems?
There are more types of capital than ever before to support food
businesses... but many don't know they exist, they can be challenging to
access and even more, it’s hard to tell which type will be the best for
each business.
Elizabeth Ü, author of “Raising Dough,” will provide a helpful
framework for thinking about appropriate financing sources for
enterprises, sensitive to their unique values, priorities, and where
they are in the business lifecycle. Her presentation is designed
primarily for organizations that work with socially responsible food
businesses, such as people who work for nonprofits, government offices,
economic development companies, consulting firms, lenders, foundations,
family offices. Of course the same principles apply to fundraising
entrepreneurs themselves, who will leave with lots of tools to work with
in their quest to raise money.
Gray Harris, of Coastal Enterprises Inc. (CEI), a community development
finance institution (CDFI) in Maine, will give some detailed,
illustrative examples of their investments, and investment strategies in
regional food systems.
