We’re thrilled to announce an exciting opportunity for impact-driven entrepreneurs! 🌍✨ Our upcoming Cohort 9 at The Alternative Funding School is dedicated to empowering founders across the UK and EU, and we want to make sure our next Alternative Funding School cohort is balanced between UK and EU entrepreneurs.
Som we’re opening up a special giveaway just for EU-based founders who are fundraising in the EU, especially those who see the cost as a bit of a barrier.

What’s the prize?

The prize is a fully-paid place in our flagship programme Alternative Funding School – Cohort 9 (our only cohort of the year). This is our second 'focused cohort' as last years went really well. If you're an impact founder based in Europe, this is your chance to join an incredible community and get the hands-on support you need to elevate your fundraising journey.

Why enter?

What you can expect from Cohort 9 and what you'll win:

 

1. Confidence in Fundraising: Learn to break down the complex world of fundraising into manageable steps. Our program will boost your confidence, making the entire process less daunting.

 

2. Supportive Peer Network: Build a network of like-minded entrepreneurs who can offer accountability, support, and collaboration.

 

3. Diverse Funding Paths: Discover new and diverse funding models tailored to socially-driven businesses, helping you find the perfect fit for your vision.

 

4. Time Efficiency: Save months, or even years, of searching for the right funding. We condense this journey into a structured, seven-week program.

 

5. Tailored Coaching: Benefit from one-on-one coaching sessions with our expert Esme, who will provide personalised guidance and keep your focus sharp.

 

More details about The Alt Funding School:

 

  • Flexible Schedule: Engage with live sessions or catch up with pre-recorded videos at your convenience. Expect to invest 1-3 hours per week.

 

  • Curated Small Cohort: Each cohort is limited to 50 impact-focused founders, ensuring a personalised peer-to-peer learning experience.

 

  • Affordable Payment Plans: If you don't win, you can still join with our flexible payment options.

 

This is a fantastic opportunity to kickstart your fundraising journey with the support and guidance of The Alternative Funding School. Join us and be part of a movement that challenges the traditional norms of business and funding.
