What our members have to say...
"We were toying with our business idea for many years. Having finally decided to give it a go, we prepared a business plan from scratch and then posted it on here. Knowing that our financial situation as non-homeowners made it very hard to get bank funding. We had 4 replies within a week and then a further 2 later down the line. I am pleased to say we received our investor’s cheque last week and a very very nice meal to celebrate. This site is brilliant and opens so many doors to people who may think every door is sealed closed. Every step was brilliant and to come to where we are now is unbelievable for such normal folk as we are."

£150m entrepreneur fund launched in Scotland
|
|
Over £150m will be pumped into the Scottish economy over the next four years to help entrepreneurs north of the border.
The Scottish Business Start Up Fund, launched by the Scottish Conservatives earlier this week, will provide a range of grants and loans for fledgling businesses, as well as relevant training and education.
In addition to the fund, which is worth a total of £154m, the Tories have promised to introduce a minister for enterprise and jobs, and to impose a mandatory requirement for all colleges and universities to provide enterprise-related courses.
Annabel Goldie, leader of the Scottish Conservatives, said it is “common sense to put our faith in our entrepreneurs,” as new business is a key driver of innovation and job creation.
Goldie also highlighted the range of measures her party are taking to promote small business job, including the introduction of a £10m project which will create more than 10,000 jobs.
