Fundraising on AIM resources

AIM Forums:  London 6 June, Bristol 13 June and Leeds 20 June 2008

This resource page has evolved from the content generated by our partners at the faculty AIM Forums held in June 2008.  These uniquely interactive events brought together all the relevant advisers for a company considering AIM, in workshop and ‘surgery’ format.

Over 200 delegates attended these events and speakers included Marcus Stuttard, deputy director of AIM and Chilton Taylor, head of Capital Markets, Baker Tilly.

There were workshops led by experts in the field covering the respective roles of Accountant, Nomad, Lawyer, Broker, Research and Valuation specialist. With four workshop sessions per delegate and a chance to chat 1 to 1 with experts at our surgeries there was plenty of opportunity for delegates to get the advice they needed. The events was followed by lively networking lunches.
