EVENT DETAILS
The Largest Forum Dedicated to Non-Dilutive Financing Strategies for Emerging Growth Companies

ABOUT THE CONFERENCE
The use of venture debt has gained in popularity as emerging growth companies remain private longer & seek creative forms of financing that minimize dilution. Many debt products such as term loans, revenue-based financing, receivables financing, & equipment financing fall under the broad moniker of venture debt, but despite the growing popularity of these products, for many, venture debt remains an unfamiliar form of financing.

The Venture Debt Conference offers a unique opportunity for networking & discussion of non-dilutive loan strategies for VC-backed & emerging growth companies. Hosted by DealFlow Events, this full-day forum addresses the growing interest in using venture debt to complement venture capital & to discuss alternative financing to companies unfamiliar with these investment strategies.
