Businesses at Surrey Research Park have collaborated to create a new initiative which provides all tenants with access to free consultancy from specialist businesses within the Surrey Research Park community.
The inaugural businesses provide wide-ranging business support from digital marketing, business financing options, remote working technology solutions and video /design services. Other businesses on the Park have been invited to join the group. If you are interested contact Paul Scott.
Each company is offering a minimum of a one-hour consultation to discuss specific opportunities for the tenant business.
The Surrey Research Park Business group companies are currently:
- Asset Funder – business finance
- Cressive DX – SEO actionable insights and digital reporting for web platforms
- Dolphin Networks – digital workplace solutions with Sharepoint and Office 365
- Nice Group – digital marketing, digital strategy and app development
- Noah – Presentation design, digital design and video production
The initiative has been supported by EM3 Growth Hub, also based at Surrey Research Park, which has funding from the EM3 LEP to provide tenants with business support covering a range of areas for recovery and resilience planning in the “next normal” and growth, driving affective collaborations, while also providing guidance and information on funding and support initiatives to support businesses during this time.
Malcolm Parry, CEO, Surrey Research Park comments; “This initiative reflects the true essence of comradeship and support on the Park, reinforcing the added value we continually deliver for businesses located here. In this challenging economic environment, businesses on the Park are committed to helping each other thrive, demonstrating their expertise whilst forging opportunities to work together in the future and strengthening the economic growth within the Park further.”
Roya Croudace, EM3 Growth Hub Director adds; “This is a great initiative to encourage Surrey Research Park tenants to utilise the services which are on their doorstep and for businesses within our community to support each other.”
