Better Business Finance
Funding for growth is a big issue for many small businesses. Many will need financial support to implement their plans for growth, enabling them to buy in the expertise that they will need to be successful.
Although initiatives have been around for a while in the form of Leadership and Management funding, funding for innovation etc. here is something to add to the mix: a website bringing together advice and funding in one place.
Not all the information is populated yet, but you get the idea. If you have a growth plan and require additional financial assistance, this website is one starting point. It has some useful help and support information too.
We all expect Local Enterprise Partnerships to deliver funding, but it will take much longer than some businesses can afford to wait to get LEP funding through. In the meantime, banks are willing to lend in some cases.
