Understand the numbers that decide whether the business can keep moving

Practical financial awareness for entrepreneurs covering cash flow, working capital, margins, pricing, credit and discipline.

A profitable sale can still create a cash problem.

Revenue, profit and cash are related but not interchangeable. Entrepreneurs may grow sales while struggling to pay salaries, suppliers or taxes because collections, credit, pricing and working capital have not grown with the business.

Finance & Cash Flow sessions help founders ask better questions about the financial health of their business.

What sessions can cover

  • Revenue, gross margin and net profit
  • Cash flow versus profitability
  • Fixed and variable costs
  • Pricing and contribution
  • Receivables and payment terms
  • Inventory and working capital
  • Basic budgets and cash forecasts
  • Financial reports entrepreneurs should review
  • Tax and compliance awareness
  • Funding readiness and financial discipline
  • Early warning signs

The practical approach

Experts use simple examples and business checklists. Participants identify figures they need to start tracking and questions to take back to their accountant or finance adviser. Sessions provide general education and do not replace individual accounting, tax, legal or investment advice.

Sessions you can pick from

Each has a page describing what it covers and how it runs. Run one, or several across a term.

It runs when a college, company or community asks for it. That is usually how the first one gets scheduled.

Contribute

You do not need to be famous or senior. You need relevant experience, the willingness to speak honestly, and respect for the no-selling rule.

You can contribute as a speaker, mentor, interviewer, reviewer, facilitator, host, partner or volunteer.

Contribute your experience

What we record

Counted from what happened, never estimated.

  • Sessions completed
  • Participants reached
  • Contributors involved
  • Practice or feedback activities completed
  • Participant usefulness feedback
  • Follow-up actions and resources provided
  • Participants who later return as contributors
See how we count

Participation is free for students and individual participants unless a programme says otherwise. Speakers may explain their work, but a session is never a sales pitch.
