Notice Title

001312 Innovating for Growth Scaleups Programme 'Financial Planning For Growth'

Notice Description

The British Library's Business & IP Centre is designed to support small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and entrepreneurs from that first spark of inspiration to successfully launching and growing a business. The Centre offers free access to the UK's most comprehensive collection of business and intellectual property information, including around 50 million patent specifications, unique databases on trademarks and registered designs, thousands of market research reports, company reports, trade journals, business directories and guides to legal information and government publications. British Library information experts are on hand to guide users to the resources. There is also a range of workshops and events run by British Library experts and partners. With funding support from the European Regional Development Fund, the Centre launched the 'Innovating for Growth' programme in late 2011 to focus on providing support to growth businesses, as opposed to start ups. Innovating for Growth - Phase 1 was completed in December 2015. Innovating for Growth - Phase 2 started in May 2016 and a project extension is due to start service delivery in July 2019, subject to final funding approval. The 'Innovating for Growth - Scale-ups' programme aims to use the Centre's unique resources and expertise to help high-growth businesses scale up, through developing new products and services and entering new markets. The opportunity available is the Innovating for Growth Scaleups Programme 'Financial Planning For Growth' module.
