Business Support Delivered by Business Link West Midlands
Advantage West Midlands is responsible for enterprise and business support in the Region and has overseen the establishment of the new regional Business Link service - Business Link West Midlands - which came into effect from April 2007.
Business Link West Midlands is a one-stop shop for all small and medium sized businesses seeking support. It seeks to understand the needs of a particular business and connect it to the appropriate solution or advisor.
Evidence shows that businesses that access support are more likely to survive and grow than those that do not. The next scrutiny review aims to assess the effectiveness of the change in provision of business support services in the region. The Panel has met initially and agreed its terms of reference which are available here.
The Review Panel will be keen to consider a wide range of views and you are invited to submit evidence. This may be:
(i) a written submission
(ii) attendance at Panel hearing, either individually or within a small group
(iii) attendance at workshops and/or discussion groups
