Supporting Economic Growth

18/02/10

On 17 February 2010 we launched a new report, Supporting Economic Growth, an evaluation of our support for businesses and entrepreneurs between 2007 and 2009.

The report draws from an independent survey of over 470 of our users, and, despite being surveyed at the height of the recession, they report great success for their businesses. They feel that the Centre's support was an important factor in this success.

Some highlights:

150,000 entrepreneurs have come through our doors
89% could not have achieved their success without the Centre
We have contributed £11.3 million to the public purse

Read the report to find out more about how we've supported businesses, and thus the economy, and to hear the stories of some of the entrepreneurs we've helped.
