As a leader of a Wales-based business you’ll know this programme is for you if:
- You and your business are primed and ready for your next £2m+ strategic growth move, but you’re not sure how to get there.
- You’re totally committed to growing your business exponentially, even internationally, but you need specialist support in mitigating the risks and overcoming the critical obstacles on your path.
- You recognise that you could achieve faster and more sustainable growth if you were supported by a Coach who had successfully assisted other businesses like yourself to scale, but where do you find them and how can you afford them?
- You accept that the team that got you here won’t necessarily get you there. You want to access support to up-skill yourself and develop your team quickly, but where do you go?
- You know you must start networking in different circles with key funding partners, high net worth individuals and other highly ambitious business leaders just like you, but where and how?
Sound familiar?
Is the Accelerated Growth programme for you as it’s not for everyone? This highly specialist and bespoke service can only be made available to a small percentage of Wales-based businesses who fulfil the accelerated growth programme criteria.
To be accepted on the programme, your business must be based in Wales, have fewer than 250 employees and be able to demonstrate you have the potential to:
- Grow turnover with at least 20% year on year or for a younger organisation to achieve a minimum growth of £2m turnover over 3 years.
- Generate at least 10 new jobs within 3 years, a proportion of which are above average salary for Wales.
- Start or grow your ability to unlock opportunities in international markets that are ripe for growth.
- Pre-start and new ventures are accepted but they must start trading within 12 months and be looking to achieve growth at the levels outlined above.
This programme is exclusively targeted at high growth organisations who want to enter the next growth phase and have the potential and determination to get there.
