Description

The National Innovation Centre for Rural Enterprise (NICRE) is an exciting new research, innovation and knowledge exchange initiative funded by Research England and founding University Partners, with in-kind support from many public, business and third sector organisations.

NICRE is a multi-centre initiative. NICRE has a requirement to conduct a telephone survey of businesses operating in three specific regions in the UK (the West-Midlands, South-West and North-East). The survey will focus on aspects of business resilience and planning for both internal and external threats.
