How has the government increased business capital in Scotland?

By making funding available to small businesses in Scotland in the form of loans and grants, the government has increased overall small business capital within the economy. When small businesses have more money to work with, they are able to expand and improve. Sometimes, a lack of funds can thwart a start up small business because the money simply is not available to achieve goals. With the loan and grant programmes available, many have the chance to execute their plans without compromising their financial security. To find out if you are eligible for such a programme, fill out our online form. Alternatively, call UKStartups.org at 020 3880 8554 if you need additional information or help with your application.
