Innovation for Growth

Organiser

A one day workshop which will give delegates an understanding of the Business Model Canvas methodology and its’ value for their business.

**The Business Model Canvas is a strategic management and lean startup template for developing new or documenting existing business models. It is based on a very visual and simple to use chart with elements describing a firm's or product's value proposition, infrastructure, customers and finances. The workshop will examine each facet of the canvas and delegates will be given the opportunity to start to populate a template for their own business. For selected attendees, a follow up programme of further fully funded support for their business may be offered under the Innovate2Succeed scheme.

The most suitable delegates, who must be Midlands based SMEs, will demonstrate a level of innovation in what they do or aspire to do and priority will be given to these. They are therefore likely to be:

Innovation or technology led business.
Businesses with technology they wish to exploit.
Businesses who wish to achieve significant growth through innovation.
Those seeking to launch a major new innovation within an existing business.

Time: 09:30-16:00. View full programme here.

Client testimonials

Without the Growth Hubs help and assistance, we would never have been able to increase our sales & output and also grow our local business. With this help in purchasing new equipment we have expanded our operations and gained a new and increased customer base.

Nuneaton Roof Truss,

Over the past few years, Armstrongs has built up a fantastic relationship with Gary Thyeson from the Growth Hub. His advice on grants and funding has been really valuable to both Armstrongs and some of our clients. His knowledge of local business support has been helpful in signposting us to relevant support agencies as required. We look forward to working with Laura Delahunty moving forwards.

Armstrongs Accountancy LTD,

MES Systems Limited,

I have had an excellent experience working with Laura from the Growth Hub, from day one, she was taking detailed attention to my concerns and ideas. She was able to put me in contact with different organisations and people to find out answers to my questions and help me to solve some inquiries I was having. I feel this support definitely had a positive impact in my plans.

It’s been a fantastic inaugural eight months for the TalentTech Recruitment team and, although the reality of setting up and running a company can be a somewhat daunting experience, we have been extremely grateful for the superb help, advice and guidance given to us along our journey by Gavin Barnett and the team at CW Growth Hub. Gavin’s introductions to both Warwick & Coventry Universities and his wider business network have been absolutely invaluable.

Burbidge & Son Ltd,

Over the years since the Growth Hub was set up we have habitually gone to our Account Manager as a one-stop shop for all business-related information. It has been a really convenient way of finding suppliers, advisors and, on one occasion, we even asked for assistance with finding customers. We are invited to a wide range of business events including business development workshops, Brexit roundtable discussions, seminars on various topics and have also been asked to speak at some events. When we have needed additional information, for example, finding finance sources or help with selecti
