In a significant boost to the economic landscape of Greater Lincolnshire and Rutland, Business Lincolnshire has unveiled a suite of fully funded support programmes.
These initiatives, aimed at fostering growth and development across various sectors, reflect Business Lincolnshire’s dedication to supporting businesses from their inception to their growth stages, and then onto reaching their full potential.
Among the standout programmes available are:
Your Business Boost, designed specifically for Retail, Hospitality, and Leisure businesses. This fully funded initiative provides a comprehensive support package, including group sessions, masterclasses, and tailored expert sessions.
For manufacturing businesses, the Made Smarter East Midlands Adoption Programme and Manufacturing Transformation Programme offer specialised support in digital transformation and business enhancement.
Also available is the Start Up Academy, geared towards budding entrepreneurs and early-stage businesses, offering vital workshops and mentoring sessions.
Meanwhile, the Scale-Up programme promises to take established businesses to new heights through personalised leadership and management training.
Additionally, Business Lincolnshire addresses the pressing need for environmental sustainability through the Low Carbon programme, equipping businesses with knowledge about Net Zero, Decarbonisation, Energy Management, and Supply Chains.
Councillor Colin Davie, executive councillor for economy and place at the county council expressed his enthusiasm about these programmes. He said: “These easily accessible programmes are part of Business Lincolnshire’s commitment to empowering local businesses.
“Not only do they provide expert guidance, mentorship, and funding opportunities, but also serve as educational and networking platforms. They help businesses to adapt, innovate, and flourish in an ever-changing market. As a region, we are investing in our businesses, enabling them to thrive and contribute meaningfully to our local economy.”
In addition to the suite of new programmes, there is a full calendar of upcoming events. The next event in the series is an AI and Marketing Masterclass, which will be delivered online on November 2nd, catering to both experienced and novice marketers and AI enthusiasts keen on advancing their businesses.
