Businesses are struggling to access the finance they need, so the Coventry and Warwickshire Chamber of Commerce is utilising financial technology to provide access to both government and non-government funding options via a new partnership with Swoop Funding, supported by the British Chambers of Commerce.
In addition to access to funding tailored for their specific business needs, members will also enjoy other exclusive benefits such as a dedicated chamber finance finder hotline providing guidance to businesses’ funding queries, plus a free financial health check, as well as finance alerts and updates.
