It's never been more vital that we work together to stimulate private sector growth and help more businesses start, succeed and grow. So the intensity of our business support and enterprise activity has never been greater than it is at present.
I would also like to take this opportunity to emphasise that it is very much business as usual at Business & Enterprise North East. There is an overwhelming focus on making sure that we continue to operate the Business Link contract, and our wider portfolio of services, in a modern, effective and efficient way.
In this month's newsletter, find out about our new campaign to encourage more businesses to innovate, our work with Social Enterprises as well as updates on the businesses we have been supporting and our ongoing comprehensive events programme. |
