View allAbout This Event
The Catalyst Event takes place on 12 November 2026 at 2 Whitehall Quay in Leeds to explore how numerical data informs business strategy. Financial clarity is presented as essential for organisations with growth ambitions, regardless of their current development stage. The session offers a platform for attendees to engage with insights on interpreting key performance indicators. Networking opportunities are available for professionals seeking to enhance their understanding of financial metrics within a business context.
For any business with growth ambitions, financial clarity is essential. This session is for you no matter what stage your business is at.
If you’re thinking about raising funding, now or in the future, your numbers need to do more than just add up. They need to tell a clear, credible story about your business.
This practical and engaging session builds on the Funding Readiness Series, helping founders and business leaders understand what their financials are really saying, what investors and funders actually look for, and how to present your numbers with confidence.
Whether you’re considering equity investment, non‑equity finance, or grants, knowing which numbers matter and why, can make the difference between progress and missed opportunity.
Why Attend?
For any business with growth ambitions, financial clarity is essential. This session will help you:
Understand what your key financial numbers mean in practice
Know which metrics funders, investors, and stakeholders focus on
Demonstrate financial health, scalability, and commercial credibility
Identify gaps, risks, and opportunities within your current numbers
Ask better questions and make more informed, confident decisions
This is especially valuable if you’ve ever felt unsure about how to explain your finances or worried that your numbers don’t fully reflect the potential of your business.
Host: Daniella Wainwright
The session will be led by Daniella Wainwright, who works hands‑on with founders and business owners to help them make sense of their numbers and use them with confidence.
Daniella regularly works alongside leadership teams to translate financial information into something clear, relevant, and useful for day‑to‑day decision‑making. Her focus is on helping business owners understand what’s really going on in the business—not just what the reports say.
Daniella has worked across sectors including EdTech, Gaming, Marketing, Property, Energy, and Retail, and brings plenty of real‑world examples of the questions, challenges, and trade‑offs founders face as they grow.
In this session, she’ll help you step back, see the bigger picture behind the numbers, and feel better prepared for conversations about growth, investment, and funding
What You’ll Gain from the Session
A clearer understanding of how to read and interpret your financials
Practical guidance you can apply immediately to your business
A safe, supportive environment to ask questions—no jargon, no judgement
Expert insight grounded in real‑world experience, not theory
This interactive session is designed to be accessible, informative, and genuinely useful, giving you the confidence to talk about your numbers—and your business—with clarity and credibility.
If funding is part of your journey, this is a session you won’t want to miss.
