The CWLEP Growth Hub would like to invite you to attend a summer BBQ for start-up businesses!
Running your own business can be isolating, and in the early stages, it may be tricky to know where to go to access support, advice and information and this can slow your business growth.
The aim is to bring together start-up businesses (registered and trading for up to 2 years) and budding entrepreneurs from across the region, to help make valuable connections and introductions in a relaxed atmosphere with some great food (and hopefully weather!) There will also be a series of short talks by local experts, who will share their top-tips, things to watch out for when you’re starting out and tools and tricks that could help you in your business journey!
You’ll even have chance to put your questions to the experts in a live Q & A session* on the day. There will also be a free goodie-bag for all attendees!

*We will ask you to submit your question at the time of booking. Whilst we will try to answer as many of the questions as we can – we may be restricted due to time. Experts will be available until the end of the event, so you will have plenty of opportunity to talk with them throughout the afternoon.
