SJIC Support Regional companies to raise over £16M

SJIC has successfully delivered the regional “Understanding Finance for Business” and “Coaching for High Growth” programmes, helping companies in the region to raise over £16M in grant, equity and bank finance.

Over 1100 companies attended workshops delivered around the region, and over 250 companies received 1:1 mentoring or coaching support to help them to grow their business recruiting over 80 employees to support the growth.  A number of SJIC tenants have benefitted from the in-house expertise. Funding for these programmes has now come to an end.

However, SJIC tenants will continue to benefit from on-site expertise through our involvement as a strategic delivery partner for the newly announced Business Coaching for Growth Programme which will commence delivery February 2012. We will be notifying tenants as soon as the programme is launched, but if you wish to express an interest please email jpallas@stjohns.co.uk.
