Do you have what it takes to mentor or advise the next generation of East Sussex entrepreneurs?


That is what Business East Sussex (BES), the local Growth Hub, is asking at its next meeting which is being held in collaboration with the Association of Business Mentors.

Both organisations are searching for business men and women who have the experience, knowledge and the skills to help start-ups or existing organisations take their businesses to the next level.

The event on 21st April 2pm in Hastings at Muriel Matters House (formerly Aquila House), will also feature a talk from Training 4 Careers, a specialist team of business consultants who help companies and organisations to access funding for sustained business growth.

By understanding each business, BES navigators are able to signpost business owners to exactly the right organisation or person for their needs. Practical support is available across the board for issues ranging from finance and grants, to mentoring, accounting, distribution, insurance or regulations.
