Write to Win: Mastering Investment Bids
Date: 15th November 2023 & 17th January 2024
Venue: The Maltings, Berwick-upon-Tweed
Overview:
Are you tired of pouring time into investment applications only to face rejection? Do daunting forms leave you frustrated? Are you a freelancer or a SME in the creative industries? We can help!
About the Workshops:
Securing investments, whether grants, loans, or equity, is vital for success in the creative and cultural sector. But there's an art to winning it.
Catherine Johns, CEO of Kielder Observatory and Executive Director of Dance City will help you answer those awkward questions and develop an approach that works for you. Catherine has been hunting down and capturing investment for decades ranging from thousands to millions. Over two workshops, we will cover the basics of creating a compelling manifesto for investment and then get into those awkward questions, with the opportunity for a one-on-one meeting with Catherine between workshops to receive tailored feedback on your application approach.
Before each workshop we are also hosting an optional networking lunch to connect with other creative businesses in your local area.
