Launch of the Square Mile’s First SME Strategy

The very first SME Strategy for the City of London Corporation was launched in June 2024 at the historic Guildhall, within the City’s Small Business Research + Enterprise Centre, and London’s own Roman Amphitheatre.

The strategy sets out out how we will ensure that the #squaremile remains the best place in the UK to start and grow a business including:

-  Increase visibility and accessibility of our universal support offer to small businessees.

- Unlock the City’s unrivalled networks (eg Company of Entrepreneurs, City University, London Chamber of Commerce and Industry)

- And develop a new, targeted support offer aimed at early growth companies and underrepresented groups looking at access to #finance, #data, #space, #expertise and #networks.
