SUMMARY:Listing venues for high growth companies – using the capital mark
 ets as an alternative funding tool
DESCRIPTION:Access to finance and achieving the right finance strategy\, 
 is critical to enabling expansion and growth for business. \n\nThis sess
 ion will explore utilisation of the capital markets as an alternative fu
 nding vehicle for high growth companies. Our panel will provide insights
  from Euronext\, issuers and bankers on the various listing venues avail
 able\, trends and opportunities.\n\nGiven some of the challenges for hig
 h growth companies in accessing finance\, our panel will discuss the opp
 ortunities offered via the capital markets as a growth tool. This will i
 nclude an overview of some of the programmes offered by the exchanges wh
 ich support businesses to gain a comprehensive understanding of how to r
 aise strategic finance e.g. the Euronext TechShare and IPO ready program
 mes.\n\nWe will also hear the success stories of an issuer who has succe
 ssfully used the capital markets as a source of raising finance for spec
 ific projects and what their strategic rationale for utilising this rout
 e was.\n\nIn addition\, we will provide global insights from practitione
 rs\, both bankers and current and former officers of the Capital Markets
  Forum\, on trends and developments they are seeing as regards alternati
 ve listing venues. We will discuss what are the preparatory steps that s
 hould be undertaken before exploring such a listing and in particular\, 
 how practitioners can support their clients in becoming IPO-ready.\n
