Greetings,
I'm trying to acquire funding to start up a new kind of technical training institute (for experienced IT professionals only and not a franchise). I've received negative responses from two banks and venture capitalists because of lack of collateral. I have 12 years experience in real-world IT in organizations and training, have done my homework and written a great business plan, and have great credit. I'm wondering what other options may be available, if any, to continue pursuing my idea.
Thank you all for your help.
