Cash is king for hardware startups, but essential equipment can drain your runway faster than any other expense. This session, presented by Jess Hawthrone of CSC Leasing, introduces innovative equipment financing strategies that allow you to preserve capital and maintain equity while accessing the technology and machinery critical to your growth.
Unlike traditional venture funding that dilutes your ownership, equipment leasing provides non-dilutive capital specifically designed for hardware and technology companies. Jess will demystify the leasing landscape, showing how modern financing structures can transform major capital expenditures into manageable operational expenses while preserving your cash for R&D, hiring, and market expansion.
Whether you need a single 3D printer or an entire production line, understanding equipment financing options can be the difference between stretching your runway and running out of cash. This session provides practical tools to make informed decisions about one of your largest expense categories.
