Answer: Funding  is the process of providing financial resources or assistance to a person or organization. There are many different types of funding, but all of them serve to provide financial support for a specific entity to enable it to meet financial needs, pursue goals, or carry out activities. The most common types of funding are grants, loans, and working capital advances.

Answer: Generally speaking, a company needs funding to grow, develop and/or  maintain its current business operations. If a business does not have adequate funding, it may not be able to sustain its operating needs resulting in decreased profitability, growth, or success. Business funding is generally needed for equipment, supplies, material, employee payroll, marketing, and many other potential operating expenses that a business has to cover to remain open and functioning.
