Financing Medical Research and Development

 

As a finance broker, the most satisfying things we can help with are funding for businesses who truly help the community around us.

This was certainly the case when we were approached by an umbilical cord blood bank who needed funding to support their rapidly growing business.

The blood bank specialises in holding umbilical cords to help repair damaged tissue, support regrowth, replace worn out organs and potentially cure life threatening diseases that newborns may have in the future.

 

The Highlights

✅ Intelligent Funding worked closely to understand the medical equipment required.

✅ We helped to secure an Asset Finance deal worth almost £70,000.

✅ Allowed the business to grow and expand their storage facilities.

✅ Financed through one of our top-tier lenders with a market-leading rate.

 

The Challenge

After a period of rapid growth, this company were running out of storage facilities which played a huge part in the everyday functionality of the blood bank.

Funding was needed to invest in new specialised equipment to store the baby’s umbilical cords for important medical research and development projects.

 

The Solution

Intelligent Funding were keen to support such an important medical business and ensure their business could continue to grow.

A market-leading asset finance rate was secured to purchase a BIOSAFE 2400 MD-Smart (Medical Device) CHRONOS 2400 sample storage tank with level control device and BIOSAFE-smart tank monitoring, worth £69,055.22.

£1.1 MILLION FUNDED FOR A FOOD PRODUCTION COMPANY

A large, established food production company approached Intelligent Funding in need of additional funding to meet rising demand. With their trade volumes increasing rapidly, the business needed a finance solution that could provide immediate working capital without tying up existing assets.

The Highlights

✅ £1.1 million unsecured loan arranged to fund trade expansion for the food production company
✅ Structured across multiple lenders for the most competitive rates and flexible terms
✅ Fast approval and payout, ensuring uninterrupted supply and production
✅ Improved cash flow and turnover, enabling bulk purchasing and increased profit margins

The Challenge

The food production company had experienced a sharp rise in demand from both existing and new clients, which presented a valuable opportunity for growth. However, meeting this demand increased imports of raw materials and ingredients. To secure the best pricing and maintain strong supplier relationships, the business needed to purchase in bulk, but their existing cash flow couldn’t sustain the upfront costs.
They required £1.1 million in unsecured funding to support a high-demand trade facility. The challenge was finding a lender (or combination of lenders) that could provide such a substantial unsecured amount quickly, at competitive rates and without disrupting day-to-day operations.

The Solution

Intelligent Funding stepped in to structure a bespoke funding package that met the company’s needs in full. Using our extensive network of lenders, we were able to secure the entire £1.1 million through multiple partners, dividing the facility strategically to achieve the best blend of rates, terms and flexibility.
This multi-lender approach not only ensured fast approval but also demonstrated Intelligent Funding’s experience and understanding of funding options. With the funding in place, the company was able to capitalise on supplier discounts, improve import volumes, and strengthen its position in an increasingly competitive market. The additional liquidity supported higher turnover and allowed the business to reinvest profits back into growth and innovation, setting them up for continued success.

​Helping a Veterinary Practice Expand with Tailored Finance Solutions

​

Investing in your business’s future can be both exciting and challenging - especially when large-scale projects require significant financial backing.

​

That was exactly the situation for this client, a veterinary practice looking to fund an extensive construction and fit-out project at their premises.

​

Background

​The veterinary clinic specialises in advanced surgical procedures, hospital care, and diagnostic imaging. To maintain their reputation for excellence, they needed to ensure their facilities continued to meet the highest clinical and operational standards.

​

The Objective

​The business had reached the point where a complete refurbishment was essential - a major construction project that would modernise the entire practice.

However, covering the full cost upfront would have placed considerable strain on their working capital. To complicate matters, VAT and Corporation Tax deadlines were also approaching, making it vital to find a flexible funding solution that would preserve cash flow.

 

Our Approach​

As one of our industry specialities, the team were quick to understand the needs of the veterinary practice and structure an effective financial package.

We successfully arranged a £250,000 unsecured loan over a five-year term to finance the construction works. This funding enabled the practice to spread costs through manageable monthly repayments - keeping cash available for ongoing operational needs, including upcoming tax commitments.

​

The Results

• Supported the client with a fresh funding solution for a major clinic fit-out.

• Arranged a £250,000 unsecured business loan over five years.

• Helped maintain healthy cash flow and avoid disruption ahead of VAT and Corporation Tax payments.
