Business Growth Services

The Business Growth team at West Lothian Council's Enterprise Centre deliver a range of services for growing businesses including Business Gateway services.

 

One To One Advice And Business Planning It often helps to talk through a new idea with an unbiased third party. Many businesses use this facility before making an approach to a bank or other potential funding body. We can also help with the business planning process in a practical way, by linking up with our Business Information Service to provide the overview or background you need.

 

Access To Funding Our business advisers are well versed in the eligibility criteria for many of the schemes of financial assistance on offer. They'll help you search for grants appropriate for your business and have a proven track record in accessing these funds. And where financial assistance is unlikely to be forthcoming, they'll give you a straightforward answer.

 

Business Programmes And Seminars The West Lothian Enterprise Centre runs a full schedule of events, seminars and programmes, designed to keep you informed and up-to-date on subjects such as Management Development, Marketing and e-Business.

 

Business Healthchecks And Business Development Reviews Our Business Gateway aftercare programme includes the facility to provide Business Health Checks and Business Development Reviews.

 

Business Information Service Our professional approach to sourcing the information you need for your business could save you time and money and give you a real competitive advantage. The Business Information Service can benefit your company in so many different ways - whether you?re just at the stage of writing your business plan, or are planning to develop and expand overseas.
