Sponsors

The 3Cs Community™ has been established and grown by contributions of services and facilities of its members.

This is an opportunity to become involved, at a sponsorship level, in a successful initiative to kick-start the start-up market in Europe. The value proposition is such that advisors and sponsors are presented with investor-ready propositions that have already undergone the 3Cs Process™. This process is one of mentoring and business idea development with the assistance of recognised, successful and professional advisors. As a community, the 3Cs Community™ can draw on expertise around Europe (and increasingly, the world) to help a struggling entrepreneur realise a sustainable and backable business plan. Ideally, banks, business angels, venture capitalists and grant providers would prefer to receive a filtered deal flow rather than a steady stream of business plans of which 90% are totally unsuited to their means of funding. This unsuitability can be for reasons of timing, risk and or sector. With the formation of the 3Cs Community™, this is a new reality.

Sponsorship is sought on an annual income basis to fund hosting our online community, provision of venues for face-to-face meetings (currently various business schools around the country), and bursaries to assist entrepreneurs boot-strap their initial work on the business plan. Should such sponsorship income exceed the day-to-day needs of the community, it is envisaged that, with professional advice, seed corn funding could also be provided to businesses that have successfully completed the 3Cs Process.

Sources of sponsorship are seen as commercial business banks, advisors, law practices and providers of services to start up ventures.
