Access to Capital in the Digital Age: On Deck @ The Annual Chicago Business Opportunity Fair

The On Deck Team was in Chicago this week for a Fundwell-sponsored panel analyzing how technology is changing the way small businesses access capital. Alongside The Receivables Exchange and Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses at the City Colleges of Chicago, we discussed how the internet, social networks and alternative financing are creating more opportunities than ever before for Main Street to grow. Over 50 local small business owners were in attendance, and we spoke extensively about how this new wave of technology is helping to solve their financing needs.
