Move from the bench to the playing field.
Many entrepreneurs self-fund their businesses to get them started. But often, when they reach the limits of that initial investment, they cannot access the funding necessary to grow. UMI’s Microfinance loans help small businesses (under $25,000 in revenue) build on their momentum to begin a growth path that results in bank loan funding. It’s UMI’s hope that with the right support, and our tech training and partnerships, these entrepreneurs will eventually be attractive prospects for financial institutions’ loan programs.
