Objective
EASY will accelerate the international growth of knowledge-based businesses (KBBs) through improved connectivity and quality for early stage investors. The EASY project brings together Investor organisations across the ladder of early stage investment in Europe as a means to co-ordinate the exchange and transfer of shared practices and tools. EASY will improve connectivity and effectiveness of Early Stage Investors supporting the growth of KBBs across Europe.
The main building blocks will be:
1) International exposure of investor networks and funds (aimed at sharing best practice for investment readiness coaching and specialist know-how tailored to the needs of KBBs for early stage finance)
2) Improve connectivity between seed, angel and venture finance, testing joint strategies for deal structuring to achieve a sustainable ladder of investment for growth of KBBs across EU
3) Common shared procedures and tools (selecting business propositions and carrying out due diligence on a transnational basis; dev eloping joint mechanisms to support investment processes)
4) Transnational and Regional Investment events (offering opportunities for selected KBBs to present their proposals to investors across EU)
5) Shared quality standards and tools for effective management of Business Angel Networks and Seed Funds (ensuring preparation of KBBs for successful investment and supporting capacity building for investors)
6) New joint strategic framework to improve the legal and fiscal environment at both National and EU level Outcomes: A fully operational network of _EASY investors offering a durable critical mass of investment available to EU KBBs and addressing the equity gap for their growth New EU framework for selection of investment propositions, resulting in 20 KBBs accessing transnational investment opportunities. A strategic EU and National framework for incentives Shared quality standards for investment in KBBs and improved connectivity across Europe
