FindBusinessSupport.gov.scot is a new website offering information on around 200 business support services plus hundreds of events from Business Gateway, Highlands and Islands Enterprise, Interface, Scottish Enterprise, Skills Development Scotland and VisitScotland. The site has been built based on the views of businesses across Scotland who said they wanted an easier way of accessing support.
Hundreds of businesses have been involved in the testing of the site and will continue to be involved as development continues. The enterprise and skills agencies have worked together so businesses can, for the first time, see and access some of the most commonly searched for business support services in Scotland.
This includes a view of 1:1 advice, online tools and guides, workshops, events, networking opportunities and training seminars. Businesses are able to specify criteria for support and filter events according to their own needs.
The ambition for the site is to continue to add support services from across the public sector with more organisations being added during 2020.
