Specialist 1:1 support
OSEP specialist Enterprise Support Manager, Grant Hayward, can provide free support and guidance tailor-made for you. Support includes:
- Business development
- Local and national information and resources
- Opportunities through local and national themes, agendas and campaigns
- Connections and introductions to local key stakeholders and potential partners/collaborators
- Connections and introductions to local and national networks and events
- Signposting to other support
How the support is provided:
The support commences with an initial phone or email conversation, followed by a face to face or Zoom meeting. At the meeting, which takes approximately an hour, Grant will gather information about your organisation, its aspirations, challenges and support requirements.
Grant will then follow up where relevant on the topics raised and opportunities for support and signposting via email. He will also be available should you wish to seek further and additional support.
1:1 feedback
“Just wanted to say a big thank you for your time you made such a difference in that small amount of time.” Natalie Davis – spring 2021
“Thank you so much for all the different ways you have thought to support us, your fabulous (and renowned energy) and all these introductions at strategic levels. Not only do I have faith that interesting steps forward will come from some of them, I also want to convey what an emotional boost it has been to both Andrew and myself to get such engagement, and, in start-up years, that is so important. Thank you.” Candida March – summer 2021
