In turn, investors ,who are ready for alternative investments and have higher risk appetite, possess the appropriate skills and have less strict requirements for the companies they want to finance. These investments are an important way to support young companies, especially those engaged in innovation and technology develoment.

Market participants are invited to discuss obstacles that hinder the development of the mentioned lending instruments, a set of measures to support them and build the enviroment for creation of the necessary infrastructure.
