“A Practical Introduction for Creative & Cultural Businesses and Organisations.

If you’re thinking about your business or organisation’s future funding, this is a valuable conversation to be part of.

For many creative and cultural businesses, freelancers, charities, and CICs private investment can feel like a world with its own language and rules and something that’s hard to access and even harder to understand.

At the same time, the wider funding landscape is evolving. Grant funding is becoming more competitive, and many business and organisations are starting to explore a broader mix of income sources to support their work and ambitions.

This practical, welcoming session is designed to help you navigate that shift with confidence.

Delivered as part of the Tees Valley Combined Authority Run Your Numbers Financial Literacy Pilot (funded by Arts Council England and led by Counterculture), this event will introduce you to how investment works and where it might fit within your business or organisation’s future plans.”
