On April 17, the U.S. Small Business Administration will present a Southeastern Pennsylvania Lender-Borrower Matchmaking event in King of Prussia, Pa. The event’s “one-stop, speed dating” format is designed to efficiently spark lending relationships across the region. The "speed dating" will allow entrepreneurs to pitch to a variety of lenders for 15-minutes about their financing needs.
Representatives from over 40 banks, Certified Development Companies, Microlenders, and alternative lenders will be available to discuss funding for business start-up, expansion, modernization, commercial real estate, working capital and refinancing. Representatives from SBA’s Resource Partner network – SCORE Women’s Business Centers, and Small Business Development Centers – will also be available to help potential borrowers.
SBA encourages entrepreneurs at every stage of business development, from start-up to going concern, to attend this free-of-charge event on Tuesday, April 17, 2012 from 8:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. at the Radisson Hotel Valley Forge, Independence Ballroom, 1160 1st Avenue, King of Prussia, PA 19406.
