UKTI East launches high growth start-up support
UKTI East is looking for new companies with fast-growing ideas that could go international.
You’ll get help each step of the way: from a bright idea to full market entry, including financial support to help you go global. And you have an allocated International Trade Adviser to assist you in the longer term. For start-ups, the next step is always the most difficult. But whether you’re setting out, have a prototype or are eyeing international markets, high-end support is now available.
UK Trade & Investment (UKTI) in the East of England has developed intensive workshops for early stage businesses that have the potential to grow rapidly. All sectors will be considered, including ICT, games, life sciences, high-end engineering, media and digital production. The only real requirement is high-growth potential and international possibilities.
The workshops focus on investment readiness, company development and international marketing. They provide the knowledge, skills and strategies to fulfil your potential.
Industry experts Richard Leinfellner and Martin Rigby have worked with UKTI East to develop workshops intensively focused on new businesses: finding investment, building your company for growth, investor engagement and going to market.
Thirty companies will be invited to join these intensive, high-end, one-day workshops in Cambridge and Norwich.
Places are limited so apply now to win your place.
UKTI International Trade Advisor John Marshall, who is leading the project, said: ‘We are eager to support start-ups with global potential. We’ve built these invaluable workshops to ensure participants are fully prepared for rapid growth and have a road-map to success. We need to hear from people across the region who’ll be the next generation of business success stories.’
