Healthy business, growing business

This programme is designed to support owners/managers in getting their business into shape, help them manage change and guide them towards growing their business successfully.

It brings together business owners and managers (primarily of small and medium enterprises) in the East Kent area and provides an opportunity for professional development and time to focus on specific business needs. It also provides peer networking, access to business support networks and expert speakers as well as interactive workshop sessions.

It was initiated due to a need for quality programmes and events for businesses which could become self-sustainable and were not reliant upon external funding. It also provides an opportunity for the University to engage with local business leaders who would not otherwise have an opportunity to build a relationship
with us and access our expertise and facilities.

Benefits

• Great contacts with genuine sales opportunities (at least one delegate on the 2007 programme made their course fees back several times over), as wel as credits towards Chartered Institute of Marketing diploma.
• Optional health check to complete - a chance to focus but no pressure to share information. No need to worry about giving up trade secrets or being asked embarrassing questions.
