GAINS Gloucestershire’s Accelerated Impact Network Support 2017 - 2019
GAINS, Gloucestershire’s Accelerated Impact Network Support, is a newly launched programme, run by the University of Gloucestershire and supported by the European Regional Development Fund.
It’s been specifically created for local small and medium enterprises (SMEs) with the potential and ambition to grow their business sustainably and achieve their goals. GAINS will build on the national service previously offered by Growth Accelerator and the Business Growth Centre.
To be accepted onto the GAINS scheme, businesses must meet certain criteria, which include being based within the area covered by GFirst LEP, meet the definition of ‘high growth’, and be able to complete the coaching programme within six months.
Once on the programme, management teams will receive access to four days of high-quality coaching, an in-depth business diagnostic, a series of masterclasses that tackle local highgrowth SME needs, and inclusion within a Gloucestershire-specific, high-growth networking group.
The funding will run until December 2019, but is limited to just 220 Gloucestershire businesses, so enterprises are encouraged to apply as soon as possible to ensure that they benefit from the programme.
For more information about the programme and whether you might be eligible please get in touch with me. [email protected] or 07969 043 117
General enquiries about the programme should be made to: [email protected] or 01242 715475
