Alright STOP, Collaborate and Listen!

 

Companies in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly can work closer together to grow their businesses with the launch of a new match-making service from the Growth Hub.

• New collaboration web tool launched

• Developing online business community

• Growth Hub rated 5/5 for service

Working with other businesses can create beautiful partnerships and the Growth Hub is playing match-maker. The Team have launched Collaboration Junction, a tool that will bring people and businesses together to make big plans.

Collaboration can mean different things to different businesses, depending on where they are on their growth journey.  They might be ready to move their business off the kitchen table and into its first premises, but don’t want to take that first step alone.  Collaboration Junction could match them with another business who can share the space and half the risk for both parties.

On the other end of the growth scale, a business may be looking to develop an innovative new product but need someone else’s skills on the design or fabrication, Collaboration Junction would help them find a partner to deliver their vision to the market.

This new service is the latest to be launched by the Growth Hub which, in addition to a free business review and signposting to available support, offers its members the opportunity to promote their products and services on the Business Directory, advertise new jobs and contract opportunities, sharing their news stories and develop contacts with other businesses.

The Growth Hub has been rated five out of five for client satisfaction in a recent survey, indicating that business really value the support offered by the team.

Anyone interested in starting or growing their business can call the team directly or register with the website.  They can book a free business review with one of the Growth Hub Connectors who will work with them to help identify and access support in a way that is right for their business.

The Cornwall & Isles of Scilly Growth Hub is part funded by £2,435,909 from the European Regional Development Fund and is match funded by Cornwall Council, the Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy and the Cornwall and Isles of Scilly Local Enterprise Partnership.  The Growth Hub is delivered by Cornwall Development Company.
