The "Meeting Mittelstand", organized by the BVMW - Bundesverband medium-sized businesses, trade association of Germany e.V., took place at BFI Stahlbausysteme GmbH & Co. KG in Warburg on June 08 2016^th.

Participants had appeared numerous and enjoyed an evening of conversation around the topic of financing under the motto:

"The financial dilemma, despite low interest rates - or: Bankers are different."

No entrepreneur really likes dealing with his bank, unless the credit line will be extended or it is an extraordinary financing.
How can collaboration work and which options have entrepreneurs?

Here some alternatives have been identified and discussed.
For example: How can "factoring" open up further opportunities or a new funding opportunity such as "crowd funding".

The evening was rounded up with a tour across the company by the CEO Axel Bürger. He presented the latest machines (a bender, a drilling/sawing and laser system), which enable a much faster acting.
The meeting ended with a delicious snack. Meanwhile questions were asked and answered, experiences exchanged and surely new interesting contacts were made.
