Businesses like yours should make use of these options to ensure that you can continue to serve your customers, pay your staff and keep your business in the best shape possible, ready to come out of the other side.
Beyond government funding there are further options available, including working capital facilities, such as invoice finance, borrowing against IP or even loans that effectively accelerate the payment of R&D tax credits (even if the claim has not yet been filed).
Growth equity investors are also still currently deploying capital and offer another option for businesses that were on a strong growth trajectory. This can be particularly attractive as while it may involve dilution there is no requirement to repay.
