Business Growth West Midlands partners with UK Government to boost business support

Business Growth West Midlands today announces its partnership with the UK Government's Department for Business and Trade (DBT) on the new Business Growth Service, designed to make it easier for businesses across the UK, including in the West Midlands to find and access the support they need to start, grow and succeed.

The Business Growth Service helps businesses to access free, expert and impartial advice, including vital local support through Growth Hubs across England.

The new service addresses feedback from businesses that support has previously been difficult to navigate, by connecting support from the UK Government with the vital services also delivered through local partners

Paul Edwards, Head of Economic Delivery at the West Midlands Combined Authority said "We're delighted to partner with the Business Growth Service to offer West Midlands businesses seamless access to both local and national support. This collaboration will ensure businesses in our community can easily find the right help when they need it most."

Business Growth West Midlands will continue to provide personalised support to local businesses while being able to connect them with wider government resources through the new integrated system of the Business Growth Service.

Businesses in the West Midlands can also access a wider range of support from the Business Growth Service at Business.gov.uk - Find the right support for your business or by contacting Business Growth West Midlands.
