Hull and East Yorkshire Local Enterprise Partnership (HEY LEP), Investment Programme Team, is running an event for all businesses in the East Riding of Yorkshire to discover existing and new funding opportunities.
The event is for all SMEs in the East Riding of Yorkshire and will provide information on both the Growing Places Fund, the Made Smarter Programme and additional Business Support available. There will be an opportunity to have one-to-one discussions with members of the Investment Programme Team, Business Support Advisors from ERYC, The Made Smarter Team, as well as a presentation by Leon McQuade from Think Cloud about AI in Business. The event will also be joined by Innovate UK Edge.
The event will bring together a range of support and advisory services in one place, focused solely on SMEs in the region, where business owners can meet and explore funding ideas with experts, which could have a positive impact on their businesses. Previous similar events have also provided a good opportunity for networking with other businesses in the region.
Leon McQuade from Think Cloud will be giving a presentation about the opportunities for businesses to learn how digital adoption in businesses could contribute to cost savings, increased productivity and economic growth, through the implementation of digital technology.
This event will be an opportunity for SMEs across East Yorkshire to talk to a wide range of experts who can offer business support and talk about funding opportunities that exist.
Alison Lacey, Investment Programme Officer at the HEY LEP, said: “This session is a great opportunity for local businesses to find out ways in which they can be supported, both through funding and a whole range of other opportunities.
