Members and their guests are invited to lunch at the Old Hall, Queens’ College
Enjoy the opportunity to network over pre-dinner drinks, followed by lunch and a talk by Richard Jones, founder of Pilotfish Finance.
Richard is a vastly experienced Finance Director with over 25 years’ experience in the finance sector. He specialises in helping organisations find finance for growth, devise and implement turnaround strategies and achieve stepped increases in scale. Additionally, Richard helps property developers to raise finance and structure multifaceted, large-scale deals unlocking otherwise unattainable projects
As the cost-of-living crisis unfolds and interest rates continue to soar, Richard will explore the opportunities and risks facing business owners. How is the economy impacting businesses’ ability to raise finance? Do lender’s still have appetite to fund ambitious growth plans? And what changes will we see in the cost of funds?
Richard will share practical steps businesses can take to protect performance, we’ll look at what affordable finance options are available and explore why businesses shouldn’t lose sight of their growth plans.

ACCESSING QUEEN’S COLLEGE : Access to the Lunch is via Queens’ College Porters’ Lodge. Google Map to Porters’ Lodge 8 Silver St, Cambridge CB3 9ES, UK
CAR PARKING : The closest is The Grand Arcade Car Park which is a 5 min walk to Queen’s College Porters Lodge. Some members prefer Queen Anne Terrace Car Park which is a 15 min walk to the Porters Lodge as driving to the Grand Arcade can take much more time than the 10 min difference between the walks – and it is significantly cheaper!
