ALF Recruit was pleased to host a pro-manchester business lunch, welcoming local business leaders to our offices for an engaging discussion on one of the biggest challenges facing growing organisations: securing the right funding.
Bringing together business owners, advisers and funding specialists, the event provided attendees with practical insights into the funding landscape and the opportunities available to businesses looking to invest, expand and achieve sustainable growth.
The panel discussion was hosted by ALF Recruit’s Gavin Reynolds and featured an experienced line-up of speakers, including Jenny Linney from Maven Capital, Carl Hankinson DL from NatWest and Adam Husband from FW Capital. Drawing on their extensive experience, the panel explored the different funding options available to businesses, common challenges organisations face when seeking investment and the steps leaders can take to improve their chances of securing finance.
The discussion also highlighted the importance of preparation, building strong relationships with funding partners and understanding which type of finance best supports a company’s growth ambitions.
At ALF Recruit, we believe successful businesses are built through strong partnerships and access to the right expertise. While our focus is helping organisations secure exceptional talent, we’re equally committed to supporting the wider business community by creating opportunities for knowledge sharing and meaningful conversations.
We would like to thank Jenny Linney, Carl Hankinson DL and Adam Husband for sharing their expertise, as well as everyone who attended and contributed to such an insightful discussion. It was fantastic to see so many local businesses come together to exchange ideas, ask questions and learn from one another.
Events like this demonstrate the value of collaboration across the Greater Manchester business community, helping organisations make informed decisions and build stronger foundations for future growth. ALF Recruit is proud to support initiatives that bring people together and looks forward to hosting more events that deliver practical value to local businesses.
