Enterprise Engagement Programme for new businesses
We want to help you grow your new business!
If your start-up business is less than 2 years old then we can help you...
Suffolk Chamber is currently working in conjunction with the Suffolk enterprise agency Menta, to provide a comprehensive package of services tailored to meet the specific needs of new and early stage businesses in Suffolk.
We want to help you nurture and develop your business at what is commonly its most crucial development stage - it's first three years! With our help you will have every opportunity to increase your company profile, engage in peer-to-peer mentoring, become a valued member of a community of like-minded businesses, and have access to advice that could help you significantly reduce your company's expenditure.
What's in it for you?
