Crowdberry to hold its first Czech-Slovak forum on impact of growth capital on the value of companies on 23 November

Crowdberry is in the process of organizing its first Crowdberry Forum – a virtual conference under the theme, “Capital is more than just money”, to be held on 23 November. The influence of growth capital on the value of companies will be discussed by company founders, entrepreneurs and investors. The conference will be available for viewing online.

The last two years have seen the breaking of many long-accepted ways of doing things. Companies have had to deal with unprecedented disruption and respond with flexibility to fundamental changes in customer behaviour. Investors were forced to reconsider what types of investments make sense in this rapidly changing environment. In this kind of dynamic, access to growth capital is taking on a new dimension.

“Growth capital can mean a huge leap for a company. It gives the company a chance to grow quickly, expand to other markets, launch new products, and even acquire the competition. It can increase the value of the company as well as the impact of its business,” says Dano Gašpar, Managing Partner of Crowdberry.

“In our opinion, the external financing of companies through growth capital is an extremely important topic, especially in times like these. This is why we decided to organise a forum focused on opening up this topic on the Czech and Slovak markets and to show its importance not only from the perspective of investors and companies, but also in the context of the European economy and its prosperity,” Gašpar adds.

The nearly three-hour event will feature inspiring stories from young Czech and Slovak companies and entrepreneurs. At the same time, it will present the perspective of investors – what investment criteria they based their decisions on, how they can help “their” companies, and how they view the value that the company has created thanks to the new capital. The discussion panels will also touch on critical periods for a company and show that growth capital can serve the needs of more than just expansion.
