Supporting Small, Medium Enterprises Investing in our Industry
The UK has a productivity gap ranging from 23% to 32% when compared to similar economies. Start Ups and Small Medium Enterprises (SMEs) are proven to be more productive, growing and diversifying their businesses, developing new services and innovating faster than other organisations. Working in collaboration with this sector can help to improve productivity and can be a source of innovation and cost and quality improvement. The absence of a fair playing field in procurement and access to growth capital hinder the growth of target organisations in this sector. As a privately owned British company, we strive to invest in British SMEs, promoting growth in the UK.
