Oxford Innovation Services (OIS) is the UK's leading specialist coaching company. OIS has recently been awarded a contract to deliver the Thames Valley Berkshire Growth Hub project in the Thames Valley Berkshire LEP area.

We are looking to identify a provider to design and deliver the Growth Hub's Pre-Accelerator Programme, engaging and supporting a minimum of 40 entrepreneurs and pre-startups that have the potential to create high growth businesses based in Berkshire.

The pre-accelerator will create a local buzz around entrepreneurship and high growth ambition, raising the aspirations of businesses in Berkshire. It will also build the profile of the region with investors as a hotspot for exciting investment opportunities.

The project is financed by the Thames Valley Berkshire European Regional Development Fund (ERDF), part of the European Structural Investment Fund (ESIF) portfolio 2014 to 2020. The Department for Communities and Local Government is the managing authority for the fund, which was established by the European Commission to help improve the competitiveness of SMEs by increasing their capacity and capability, and promoting entrepreneurship to strengthen the pipeline of high growth businesses across England.
