GOVERNMENT FUNDED SUPPORT FOR BUSINESS

 

What is The Business Hothouse?

The Business Hothouse is a free business support program that runs until September 2022. We offer a range of free workshops, intensives and 1-2-1 mentoring sessions that are led by experienced business coaches and management consultants. We also offer access to the Invest4 business grant fund.

 

Who is The Business Hothouse program aimed at?

We welcome any U.K. resident aged 18+ with a business, a start-up or just a business idea.

 

What topics are The Business Hothouse free workshops and intensives on?

 

The objective of our program is to bridge the business knowledge gaps that many business or start-up owners have. We offer expert support across these six key areas:

• Perfecting Productivity and Going for Growth
• Finding Finance & Funding
• Developing Leaders & Managers
• How to Start a Start-up
• Invest4 Grant Funding
• Commercialising Innovation

Where are our workshops and intensives held?

You can choose to attend our interactive online workshops or you can attend our workshops that are held in physical spaces. We deliver these in key cities and towns across the coast-to-capital area. The best way to find out when we’re delivering workshops in your area is to sign-up to our Emailer which we broadcast once a fortnight. You can also follow us on Social Media.

Invest4 is a business grant fund. We award cash to businesses and start-ups to help them to grow faster. You can find out more here

 

Why is there no fee to attend our workshops and intensives?
