Can the government help an entrepreneur raise capital within Belfast or the North East region?

Within the North East region there remain government programmes to help you get more small business capital, such as government loans and grants, and similar programmes are also to be found within Belfast. You can use the money from such offers to purchase equipment or supplies you may need that you could not get without the extra help, or use the funds to hire and train more employees to cover the needs of a growing customer base. If you do not have a small business but are trying to start one, there are loan and grant programmes for entrepreneurs as well that can help cover the initial costs of opening a small business. There are even loans and grants for those looking to buy an existing company. Find out more about what is available within the North East by filling out the form on our web site or give us a call on UKStartups.org, 020 3880 8554.
