NatWest hosts free event to help South West entrepreneurs scale up their business

Natwest is hosting a free Discovery Session for entrepreneurs and business owners at its Bristol Entrepreneur Accelerator Hub next week.

Running as part of a series with further sessions planned for January and February, those interested in finding out more about the December session on Wednesday, December 13 are invited to book a free ticket before spots run out.

The NatWest Entrepreneur Accelerator programme is a fully funded support initiative designed to help local businesses to scale and grow.

Successful applicants benefit from expert advice and guidance from dedicated acceleration managers as well as full use of the Hub’s modern co-working spaces in the city centre of Bristol, access to a calendar of networking events, one-to-one coaching, and the opportunity to join a community of like-minded peers, specialists, mentors and NatWest colleagues.

The Discovery session will also provide an opportunity to meet with entrepreneurs currently on the Accelerator programme.

Applications for the March 2024 cohort are currently open and will close on February 16. To apply to their first programme, entrepreneurs do not need to be NatWest customers.

Since its launch, the NatWest Accelerator Hub has supported hundreds of businesses across the Southwest.

Elly Rowley, regional ecosystem manager at NatWest said: “We are long-standing supporters of local business and entrepreneurs in the region. From financial services to hospitality, we have the tools to help local business owners grow, scale and succeed.

“As champions of entrepreneurial talent, we look forward to welcoming the next cohort of local entrepreneurs and helping bright ideas evolve to become the cornerstones of the local business community.”
