This initiative falls under the Adult and other education services industry category, specifically targeting the South West region of the United Kingdom. Currently in the planning stage, the key milestone to note is the engagement end date, set for 4th September 2020. This tender is focused on supporting individuals in establishing their own businesses, particularly targeting those who do not currently run a business. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those specialising in adult education, training services, and entrepreneurial support. Suitable competitors would include small to medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) with demonstrated expertise in business development and training. Companies capable of showcasing innovative approaches and evidence of previous success in similar projects will be well-positioned to compete and contribute to this supportive initiative for aspiring entrepreneurs in the region. ## Notice The Community Led Local Development (CLLD) Programme in Cornwall is pleased to open a call for projects that will support people to establish their own businesses in South & East Cornwall. Projects can be designed to support people in CLLD target areas provided they do not already run a business. Business creation may be a response to recent job loss, to supplement existing employment or possibly to achieve a longer term aim of transitioning from employment to self-employment. We are keen to hear your ideas. We are seeking projects that raise aspiration in eligible participants and recruit them to the delivery of a min of 12 hours interaction where they will learn how to become enterprise ready. We expect this activity to include the development of thorough understanding about the positives and negatives of running your own business, financial competence, market analysis, business planning, and generally supporting potential entrepreneurs to the point of start-up. Further support for new enterprises may also be incorporated (additional min of 12 hours interaction) to supplement pre-start support for the new entrepreneurs as they take their first steps as a self-employed individual. Applicants should demonstrate their understanding of the South and East Cornwall economic context and where they are linking with local organisations for engagement, support and/or legacy purposes. Evidence of innovative thinking and a clear exit strategy demonstrating the lasting impact of the project, will be required. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/65c89a47-1cc1-4c54-8291-13b5f9c19b0f | | Notice type | Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 19 Jun 2020 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 4 Sep 2020 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planning | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | CORNWALL DEVELOPMENT COMPANY LTD | | Locality | REDRUTH | | Post town | Truro | | Postcode | TR15 3QG | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK3 Cornwall and Isles of Scilly | | ITL 3 | TLK30 Cornwall and Isles of Scilly | | Local authority | Cornwall | | Electoral ward | Pool & Tehidy | | Westminster constituency | Camborne and Redruth | | Delivery location | TLK South West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 80 - Education and training services ### Codes - 80400000 - Adult and other education services - 80500000 - Training services ## Release History - 19 Jun 2020 at 14:00 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/65c89a47-1cc1-4c54-8291-13b5f9c19b0f ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/65c89a47-1cc1-4c54-8291-13b5f9c19b0f 19th June 2020 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/82ea8a0a-38f7-470a-86a9-86eb8b68fba9 Call Document - https://communityledcornwall.co.uk/calls-for-applicants/ Link to the papers on the CLLD website ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
