AD:VENTURE is a fully funded business support programme for new West Yorkshire companies under three years old. It offers tailored guidance and access to resources to help businesses grow and reach their full potential.

To help fund growth, there’s an AD:VENTURE Growth Grant covering up to half of project costs, with awards from £1,500 to £10,000.

Businesses get a dedicated Business Manager to provide practical support, networking opportunities, and assistance with strategy, regulations, and funding.

AD:VENTURE also provides a comprehensive range of online business skills workshops. This September we are covering everything from sales and marketing to finance and recruitment. Whether you’re looking to boost your sales technique, understand the tendering process, build a strong online presence, or develop a robust business plan, there’s a workshop to suit your needs. These sessions will equip you with practical tools and knowledge to help your business grow and succeed.

Workshop attendee feedback:

“Thanks for today, I give it a 5/5 on all counts. Just the right level of understanding and gave me loads to think about. Plus, I’ve made a new connection who I’m going to meet up with and talk about our experiences and maybe collaborate!”
