Overview

GBS LEP working with Birmingham City Council is seeking to commission a contractor to deliver a Business Support Function as part of the delivery of the GBS LEP Business Growth Hub. Growth Hubs are part of a government initiative to roll out a national network of hubs which will provide a single local place for businesses to go for business related advice and support.

The provision of a GBS LEP Growth Hub is seen as a ‘game changer’ in the LEP’s Strategic Economic Plan (http://centreofenterprise.com/s/s). They will help to create economic prosperity for the area.

GBS LEP and its key delivery partners believe that it is important that its Growth Hub provides its own dedicated business support function as part of a comprehensive business support service. The provision of such a function is seen as being a crucial step in contributing to the work of the Growth Hub by helping to inform and support local businesses in different ways.
