Traditionally, early stage company executive and investor financial expertise has been focused on company financing. Yet, in many cases, cleantech demands more. Many cleantech executives will be shepherding technologies to commercialization that will require large amounts of capital and will need to access the project finance markets. Therefore it is essential that these executives at the outset develop a comprehensive understanding of the fundamentals of project financing which is so important to their success.
This is even more important in the current environment, where lenders are taking a harder look at project structures and pro-formas in the face of tightening credit. Now, more than ever, deals must demonstrate solid fundamentals and risk management. The Tutorial is an excellent opportunity to get rapidly up-to-speed on how to successfully use project financing and obtain cutting-edge insight into how to best structure your project to gain optimal financing.
