Explore Enterprise: Business Start-Up Support Information Session

About the Session

Are you a Newham resident and are currently considered economically inactive?

Economically inactive means you're not in paid work and not actively seeking employment. This could include people who are retired, caring for family, managing health conditions, or studying.

Do you have a business idea or a passion or skill you would like to monetise but aren’t sure what steps to take next?

This session is designed to help you explore whether our Small Business Course to Launch and Grow is the right pathway for you.

The session will aim to cover:

• An overview of the business support available
• Programme timeline and structure
• Details on funding opportunities
• Eligibility criteria explained
• Meet the team and ask questions

This session is ideal for anyone living in Newham who:

• Has a business idea ready to launch after the course
• Is willing to register as a sole trader or limited company
• Can open a business bank account
• Are committed to completing training and building a business plan
• Want to compete for funding to support their launch

Attendees identified as suitable will be invited to register for the full Trailblazer programme.
