Birmingham City University has established a new Centre to support growth and development SMEs.

The Centre for Enterprise, Innovation and Growth (CEIG) was set up in 2016 to help SMEs develop and grow. As part of this, CEIG has developed a Promoting Sustainable Performance (PSP) diagnostic tool for firms to use in examining how to achieve growth.

SME growth is integral to successful local economies, communities, and entrepreneurs. Only a limited number of SMEs however actively pursue growth. Most firms are constrained by factors including employee skills, finance, innovation, and strategic planning. For SMEs to address these obstacles, Professor Mark Gilman at CEIG developed Promoting Sustainable Performance (PSP), a diagnostic focused on helping SMEs grow quicker, work better, and perform more competitively.

Benefits to Business include:

• An opportunity to reflect critically on your business

• Access to a diagnostic analysis on business growth practice

• Opportunity to participate in further intensive research with CEIG to aid your growth

Join us for this opportunity to explore how this free Diagnostic Tool can assist with your business growth and network with other likeminded business .

A full agenda will be sent to registered delegates.

We look Forward to welcoming you on the 27th March 2018
