About this event
Sales growth. Cash flow. Forecasts. Asset costs. How do you manage to keep track of all the data you need for the management of your business?
Financial modelling enables business owners to monitor every aspect of their business. A good financial model will help you identify your strengths and weaknesses, so you can build more viable businesses and products.
We know that reading about spreadsheets and formulas can be tedious. This workshop gives you the opportunity to learn about financial modelling in an engaging, group-environment.
Benefits for your business:
• Have a strong financial model to strengthen your business case for investment
• Predict financial outcomes to help you begin to strategise your business growth
• Join and meet other tech-entrepreneurs at the same stage of development
By the end of this workshop you'll be able to:
• Start financial modelling for both potential and existing businesses
• Analyse scenarios to create probable and possible financial outcomes
• Create a financial model you can show to investors
Please note that you need a basic understanding of Excel to benefit from this workshop.
