SME finance: The geographic gap in equity financing

This event hosted by UK think tank Centre for Cities launches their report on the geography of business investment.

The Government’s Industrial Strategy aims to improve access to equity and enable high-growth businesses, especially in “underserved areas”. But what is the size of the geographic gap to SME equity finance? What are the main constraints, and how should the Government use its policy tools most effectively?

Join Centre for Cities and outside experts for this event launching our report on the geographic gap in access to equity finance. This event will include a presentation, a discussion and the chance to ask your questions.
