THE START of a new year can be a good time for many business owners to take stock and look at their options for the year ahead.
Whatever your plans and ambitions, a Business Gateway adviser can help by signposting any relevant support available.
This could be by identifying sources of funding, making useful connections, introducing specialist sources of advice or linking businesses up with a mentor. The funding landscape changes regularly, and a Business Gateway adviser can help keep local businesses up to date about what is available to them. New loan funds have recently become available to micro businesses as well as grant funding for businesses with growth ambitions, and the Business Gateway team is happy to explain what these funds can cover and how to apply.
