Expertise of County’s Business Leaders on Offer
Chairman of the Shropshire Business Board and Shropshire Business Ambassador, Dr Geoffrey Davies OBE, has launched an exciting mentoring scheme that will benefit new and growing businesses.
As one of the top priorities identified in the Business Board’s Plan, small businesses and those about to set up in business will be offered the chance to be mentored by Business Ambassadors from a wide range of the county’s leading businesses.
Dr Davies commented “Our intention is to offer a service to compliment the support that’s available from business link by giving fledgling businesses an insight into the practicalities of running a business from those who have first hand experience and are operating their own successful companies in Shropshire.”
Initially 10 businesses are being sought to take advantage of the mentoring scheme. Individuals who are planning to set up in business or those who wish to expand their business and would appreciate some guidance on how to move their plans to the next level, can find out more information from Shropshire Council’s Economic Development Team by e-mailing businessvision@shropshire.gov.uk or by calling 01743 252531.
