Leith business hub roll-out plan

A NEW "business hub" created in Leith could be rolled out across the city.

The Leith Business Hub is based in McDonald Road Library and is the brainchild of Business Gateway and Edinburgh City Libraries. Services on offer include workshops on electronic business, salesmanship, marketing and cost- cutting, as well as one-to-one meetings with experts.

In a report for councillors, director of city development Dave Anderson said: "Links are being established with libraries who are currently reviewing information service provision.

"This may result in the creation of new business hubs, following the success of the oversubscribed Leith Business Hub, which was launched last year."
