What one top tip would you give to a business owner embarking on a growth plan?
Formulate a clear growth strategy and business plan. Think about what it is you are ultimately trying to achieve and use this as a tool to reverse engineer your pathway from where you are today, to where you want to get to.

Why is Lancashire a great place to grow a business?
Lancashire is a hotbed for exciting, growing and entrepreneurial businesses – exactly the type of business we are great at working with. Furthermore, there is a strong focus in the region on digital, tech, manufacturing and engineering – again, all areas where we have a particular focus and strong track record of delivering shareholder value in.

The Lancashire business eco system is also extremely strong with a proactive and supportive local authority who aren’t afraid to partner with the private sector in order to maximise the value of the region.
