OxLEP Business has announced the extension of its ERDF-funded eScalate programme, through to the end of April next year.
The programme – which supports Oxfordshire’s small businesses to grow with a particular focus on accessing finance and investment readiness, as well as supporting enterprises for social good – has already worked with and supported over 550 Oxfordshire-based businesses.
eScalate’s high-quality programme has been delivered via a variety of one-to-one sessions – led by expert business advisors – webinars and workshops, as well as a peer-to-peer arm of the programme.
Further impacts since eScalate was launched almost three years ago include; 280 businesses receiving one-to-one support, 75 webinars and workshops delivering targeted support and the creation of 19 facilitated peer groups.
eScalate aims to work with Oxfordshire SMEs to grow and become investment-ready, as well as supporting the county’s enterprises for social good.
