This is the first of a two-case series (398-056-1 and 398-057-1). In early 1993, four years after inception, Regus has 11 business centres in 8 European countries. Mark Dixon, the company''s founder, has, however, even more ambitious plans for the company''s growth over the following year. He has not been successful attracting bank finance and is now considering an offer from a partner company to invest £1 million for 15-20% of the company''s equity. Is this the right option for the company? What other alternatives does Dixon have?
