This FREE event organised by Gosport Borough Council, Enterprise First and Gosport Basepoint covers the key areas of starting and growing a small business, with local experts:

• sharing their top ‘do’s and don’ts’
• highlighting what to look out for in terms of common issues you are likely to face

The speakers are from local professional services firms and most of them are also business owners in their own right too.  Therefore they will be able to give a broader insight into starting and growing a business, as well as advice related to their specialisms e.g.

• accountancy
• employing people
• finance
• marketing
• sales

You will also have the chance to ‘ask the expert’ with a Q&A session prior to networking with other attendees over refreshments.  During the networking there will also be the opportunity to talk to the experts on a 1-2-1 basis too.

Who should attend

It is aimed at those who have just started their business or a more established small business looking to grow or address barriers to growth.

What can it lead to

This workshop can be the key first stage in accessing the support, professional advice and funding for business growth that is available to you locally.
