“We’re developing a new approach to business support across Tees Valley, and we want to make sure it works for everyone.

We’d like to invite ethnically diverse business leaders and entrepreneurs to take part in a workshop where we’ll share our proposed approach and to discuss the experiences, opportunities and barriers faced.

Your insight will help ensure the future support model reflects diverse perspectives and creates a more inclusive and accessible environment for businesses to grow and succeed.

The two-hour workshop will be a chance to:

• Learn about our proposed new business support system
• Share your experiences and perspectives
• Help identify barriers faced by ethnically diverse businesses and entrepreneurs
• Contribute ideas to make services more accessible and inclusive

Our goal is to create a support system that is simple to access, practical, and effective for all businesses. Your input will play a key role in making sure we get this right.

PLEASE NOTE: This session is for business founders and entrepreneurs from the Tees Valley only and is not open to support providers.”
