A new opportunity for businesses in West Sussex has arrived with the launch of the West Sussex Growth Hub.
The new Growth Hub, which is run by the County
Council, offers support and advice to West Sussex businesses, to help ensure
their success.
The West Sussex Growth Hub offers a free, comprehensive business support service, including triage, diagnostics and signposting as well as one-to-one and intensive support options. An experienced team of advisers is ready to help business owners navigate their way to sustainability and growth.
One business
owner helped by the West Sussex Growth Hub said, “I recently had the
opportunity to meet with a Business Account Manager from the Growth Hub. During
our meeting, we delved into critical aspects of ourbusiness, including
cash flow and our strategic plans for the next 12 months. I highly recommend
their services to any business seeking expert advice and strategic
support."
