Does your business sometimes feel like a tiny fish in a huge ocean? Have you ever missed out on tenders for contracts because your company’s simply too small? Do you wish you had stonger buying power? Or a bit more business clout? If the answers yes, then our Business Clusters programme can help. We have the initiative, funding and expertise to bring small businesses together, with others in their sector, to benefit from joint initiatives, grow in strength and share ideas.

A good example of how this can work is the development of the Sedgefield Engineering Forum which:-

• provides a network of engineering businesses who exchange ideas, common areas of concern and best practice
• identifies opportunities for joint procurement enabling member companies to save money
• identifies opportunities for joint tendering amongst members
• works with educational providers to enhance provision of engineering courses
• promotes engineering as a career option.
  

Of course, Business Clustering works in every sector from hospitality to retail and design to construction, so give us a call on 0800 030 4134 and see how well it could work for you.
