As a leader of a Welsh based business, you'll know the Accelerated Growth Programme is for you if:
- You and your business are primed and ready for your next £2 million+ strategic growth move, but you’re not sure how to get there?
- You’re totally committed to growing your business exponentially even internationally, but you need specialist support in mitigating the risks and overcoming the critical obstacles on your path?
- You recognise that you could achieve faster and more sustainable growth if you were supported by a Coach who had successfully helped other businesses like you to scale. But where do you find them and how can you afford them?
- You accept that the team that got you here won't necessarily get you there. You want to access support to up-skill yourself and develop your team quickly, but where do you go?
- You know you must start networking in different circles with key funding partners, high net worth individuals and other highly ambitious business leaders just like you, but where and how?
-
If the Accelerated Growth Programme is not for you, alternative business support is available. Please visit the Business Wales website to find out more.
