Funding from the UK Shared Prosperity Fund and Rural England Prosperity Fund will see local business partners deliver specialist advice and guidance on:
• Business Innovation: Businesses will receive innovation and technological support to improve productivity and help in adopting new or improved products or services.
• Entrepreneurship & Start Up: To support those in the process of starting up, and for start-up businesses including social enterprises. Delivery will help you to be business ready and understand what you need to know about self-employment.
• Business Scale-up: Supporting established businesses with growth potential through the development of business growth plans and the adoption of new or improved products or services.
• Export support: Export-readiness support for local businesses looking to engage in new markets.
• The programme includes Export Grants to support businesses to grow their overseas trading and develop their export strategy.
• Business Decarbonisation: To provide advice, guidance, mentoring and training, which will result in new or improved de-carbonisation and/or net zero plans.
