"Laura at the Growth Hub was fantastic because she knew just who I needed to contact to turn my idea into a reality, and everyone has been so supportive and knowledgeable."
"The changes we are making at Tecman are really exciting and I met with Laura from the Growth Hub to discuss the various funding opportunities that were available. We are on a rapid growth trajectory with a large portion of our business growth coming from sectors identified by the government as critical to the national industrial strategy, such as the renewable energy sector, which includes wind blade protection and EV batteries."
"We had our first meeting with the Growth Hub in December and they came up with a plan of action to assist the business and people we could meet. They have signposted us to different organisations and individuals within Coventry and Warwickshire’s business community which has guided us and enabled us to be where we are today."
The support has been first-rate from the Growth Hub and Coventry City Council particularly with the application process towards the grant. Through my previous roles in local government I was aware of the great work of the Growth Hub which I’ve now experienced myself."
"Whilst we're business owners now, we're not serial entrepreneurs, this is our first go at it. So we found the support immeasurably valuable and we pass that feedback on so everybody else can grow too."
“Following the end of lockdown, we have- moved forward with our plans and after contacting CWLEP Growth Hub, we got in touch with CWRT and they have helped us with a Recovery Loan. Without their help, we would not be in the position we are now in."
“Laura at the Growth Hub helped me with the clarity I needed because I had plenty of ideas but I wasn’t sure which were viable and I didn’t know who to speak to in order to access support."
I carried out a lot of detailed market research and realised we needed to buy a small truck – similar to the type you see with a cage picking up litter bags in parks – so I got in touch with the Growth Hub and then CWRT to apply for the Duplex Investment Fund. We now have our new vehicle and we’re ready to go.
