The Accelerator Fund Celebrates its Century
15 February 2008
We're delighted to announce that since launching the fund back in June 2004, we have now offered over 100 loans across a very broad spectrum of business sectors - from Food Retail, to Sports Coaching and Publishing to Designer Clothing - which equates to nearly £10 million of lending agreed. Notwithstanding this success, we still have a strong appetite and the funds to do more, so as a start point, please don't hesitate to call one of the Accelerator Team to chat through any possible propositions.Duvas Technologies Raises New Equity and Loan Funding
