FUEL Roadshow 2026: Unlock Smarter Funding

FUEL is a business finance and funding roadshow visiting seven UK cities in 2026, launching in Newcastle 17 March. A full-day event designed to cut through jargon and help business leaders get clear, get ready, and get connected directly with investors, lenders, and funding experts in just one-day.

For a single ticket, you’re not just buying entry, you’re accessing a complete package designed to move your business funding plans forward. You’ll have a personalised experience, with tailored ‘Meet the Money’ sessions, matching you with funders who can support your specific business needs and arranging a 1-2-1 meeting on the day. With real funding opportunities, sessions that create action, and stories that inspire, can you afford to miss this event?

Whether you’re just starting out, reviewing your finances, or planning your next move, FUEL connects you with the support that drives your business forward, with:

• Pre-matched meetings: Sit down with funders who want to work with businesses like yours.
• Actionable workshops: Leave with clear steps and useful tools.
• Real success stories: Hear from founders who’ve made it happen.

FUEL is backed by UMi (who’ve unlocked over £1 billion for UK SMEs) and national partners including the Minister for Small Business, NatWest, Purbeck Guarantee Insurance, CO4CH, Office of the Small Business Commissioner, CBI, British Business Bank and regional partner FW Capital.

Each event connects more than 250 business leaders with funders, investors, and experts who turn opportunities into action, not just in theory but in practice.
