Businesses urged to make use of support conference offering

Midlothian Council is urging companies and future business owners to take advantage of a support conference in Roslin later this month.

A triple-pack of business support skills, training and loan-funding information is being held at the Midlothian Innovation Centre on Friday, November 18.

The theme of the launch event – which is open to both actual and potential Midlothian business men and women – is about highlighting the support and sources of funding available from the East of Scotland Investment Fund and from Skills for Midlothian Businesses.

Councillor Russell Imrie said: “These are the kind of valuable ‘add-on’ specialisms which small businesses often struggle to afford but which are so vital in maximising human resources.”
