Well the problem is convincing the bank they would get some money back, i think that might be problematic, and if they do make a loan and the congress makes a loss who is going to pick up the tab, dont think I would want to take that risk and I imagine most on here would feel the same way.
Maybe little steps are needed rather than big ones, perhaps organising our own congress without the relevant experience is too tricky at first, I suggest we run our own competition or series of competitions within existing congresses at first.
Plan B is to set up a fund and invite donations as credits against subsequent entry fees, we could agree in principle a place and a weekend at some point in the future and just see how much money comes in
I have twice now asked whistleblower for advice on how do I go about contacting a bank with regards to helping finance this venture and have had nothing in return.
So now I am asking you lot. This venture is going nowhere and hasn't been for a while simply because I need help with this.
So if you have ANY idea how I go about approaching a bank about this then either reply in here or send me a message so this dream doesn't just stay a dream.
