Starting a business
Running a business requires a variety of skills including financial management, organisational ability, marketing knowledge and an awareness of health and safety and legal issues.
Very few people who set out in business have all of these skills to begin with. We can help to develop the expertise you will need to help you to be a success.
The Business Enterprise Renewal Team provides a range of support to help you start your business and important support while the business is growing.
For an initial discussion about what we can offer your business, please contact the Business Enterprise Renewal Team.
