Appointment with the doctor
Scottish business support organisation Go Group has launched a new programme of support to help utility businesses survive the credit crunch.
The Business Doctor programme aims to aid ailing utility businesses with a range of training and advisory services, focusing on nurturing business start-up, supporting business growth and encouraging innovation during the next financial year.
Liz Metin, deputy director of learning and development at Go Group, said: "It's a fact that some 90% of applications for equity funding in Scotland fail to achieve their objective every year, proving that it's tough, and getting tougher, to secure the cash to drive business growth. It is therefore vital, now more than ever, for companies to become forward thinking and prepare thoroughly for what lies ahead."
For more information on the training available from Go Group please call 0845 602 1249 or visit www.thegogroup.co.uk .
