Learn art of business proposal writing for loans and funding

Writing appropriate business proposals for loans and funding is challenging. Moreover, many people are unaware of the basis of assessment when proposals are considered, hence the effort put into drafting a business proposal often goes to waste.

The Chamber Academy in its continuous efforts to uplift the private sector businesses in the country, offers a hands-on full day training program, captioned ‘Master the Art of Business Plan Writing for Loans and Funding’ with two well-renowned resource persons, on 30 August, from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. at The Ceylon Chamber of Commerce.

The workshop, conducted by Ravi Bamunusinghe and Champal de Costa is designed to cover all aspects of business proposal writing. 

It will include components on how to formulate viable business plans and project proposals acceptable to outside financiers, techniques of evaluation of credit proposals, cash flow management, investment appraisals and other relevant areas in which entrepreneurs and proposal writers should essentially be conversant.
