Launch of GrowthAccelerator

Today the Government launched GrowthAccelerator, an innovative £200million programme designed to help 26,000 of England's brightest businesses.

The programme will provide business experts for companies to help them identify barrier to growth and how to overcome them. They will tackle problems including:

• Securing finance.
• Commercialising innovation.
• Developing leadership.
• Management capability.

Business and Enterprise Minister Mark Prisk welcomed the launch, saying:

"Entrepreneurs are the lifeblood of our economy and we are giving them the support they need to realise their potential.

"As well as this ambitious and innovative programme, we are already creating a network of thousands of business mentors and will soon be launching a new £10 million start-up loans scheme to give young people access to business advice and a small amount of capital."
