It is delivered by a community-based consortium in collaboration with Sheffield City Region Growth Hub and part funded by the European Regional Development Fund 2014 - 2020
Social Enterprise Exchange will promote social entrepreneurship, through awareness raising events, knowledge exchange and peer networking; it will provide support for start-ups, including hot-desks, start-up grants and mentoring; and it will offer specialist enterprise support for existing social enterprises to grow and to develop new products and services.
We are now seeking to procure and commission local incubators to provide additional support for social enterprise start-up and growth.
We are seeking to commission organisations that are able to provide a range of place-based business support services including hot desks, co-working and grow-on space, access to ICTs, client mentoring and first line support, hosting of project related meetings and events.
