London’s Business Advisers
Our experienced, knowledgeable and approachable team of dedicated business advisers has been supporting London’s business community for years – giving advice and support when it’s needed most.
More importantly, every member of our team has been in business themselves. They understand the practical and personal challenges that come with being the boss and, what it takes to run a successful business.
With that in mind, the question is: how can our team help you and your business succeed?
First things first – why not book an initial appointment with one of our advisers? You will be allocated an adviser based on availability. Together with your adviser, we can get a sense of where you are now and where you want to be, how you can achieve your goals and what support you need from our experienced team of advisers to get there.
The London Business Hub Business Support programme is part funded by the European Regional Development Fund’s (ERDF’s) Hub & Spoke project. Only businesses that meet the ERDF eligibility criteria will be able to access 12-hours of bespoke support provided by our team of advisers. Please check here if your eligible under this programme.
If your business has not yet started trading, please join our business start-up programme, Start Up Step Up London.
In addition to our core business advisers we have formed a panel of expert advisers who can provide up to three hours of specialist support covering areas such a tax, intellectual property, importing and exporting, corporate and commercial agreements, business travel and employment. Our experts can also support your business to understand and action the necessary changes to accommodate the new rules following the UKs exit from the European Union (EU). Find out more.
Our Business Advisers are located in five different hubs across London, however due to COVID-19 restrictions, they are currently working remotely. We hope the face-to-face service will resume soon. Until then, stay safe!
Get in touch today – we will allocate you the next available meeting with one of our advisers.
