Local businesses in Oadby & Wigston are invited to an evening networking event designed to connect them with key organisations and explore available support for their businesses and employees. The event will also serve as the launch for the new Business Green and Innovation Grant, which has £50,000 in funding available for capital projects benefiting small businesses across the borough.
Attendees will also have the opportunity to learn about the Youth Guarantee Offer, gain insights into connecting local curriculum with career paths, and understand how the University of Leicester can provide business support.
The event is scheduled to take place from 5pm to 7pm on Monday 30 November at the Brocks Hill Council Offices in Oadby. Interested businesses are encouraged to register their attendance by emailing Business@oadby-wigston.gov.uk, as places are limited.
“"Supporting local businesses is important to us, and this event is a valuable chance to hear about what help is available, build new relationships and discover opportunities that could benefit your organisation. I am especially pleased that we will be launching our new Business Green and Innovation Grant on the night, which as well as providing an environmental boost will also make a real difference to local businesses by providing funding which can be used to install more efficient systems and lead to lower costs. I really encourage businesses across Oadby & Wigston to join us for this event and take advantage of the support that is on offer."
