Business Advice, Coaching, Training and Project Management

Business Builder was established by Leicestershire Chamber of Commerce in 2005 as a business advice, coaching, and training company.

Since its creation, Business Builder has evolved and has recently become project manager for several local initiatives:

Young Chamber         

         
Young Chamber is an initiative to bridge the gap between businesses and their future workforce – school students.  Participating students have the opportunity to work on:

• Enterprising projects
• Start up and operate small businesses
• Attend business events and workshops
• Organise meetings and conferences

This gives students a genuine opportunity to demonstrate their entrepreneurial skills and potentially support real businesses by working on solving real business issues and challenges.

We have successfully established Young Chambers within The City of Leicester College and Casterton Business and Enterprise College.   From September 2009, Lutterworth College and Rushey Mead School will also be joining Young Chamber.

City Strategy Leicester      
      
City Strategy is a Department of Work and Pensions initiative operating in 15 cities throughout England.
The purpose of City Strategy has been to find new and innovative ways of supporting the long term unemployed and hard to reach members of society back in to employment.

To date, over 1400 clients who were previously unemployed have gained employment thanks to City Strategy.

Leicester BID’s Shop Front and Security Improvement Grant

A grant scheme funded by Leicestershire Economic Partnership to offer independent retailers in the city centre of Leicester funding to renovate, decorate, improve and even replace shop frontages and security systems.

Fifty retailers have benefited from the grant scheme and their work has had a very positive impact on the visual appearance of shop frontages in the city.

   Growth Loan Fund

The Growth Loan Fund was set up by Business Builder to financially assist small new start-up businesses and those up to 3 years old based within the Leicestershire county boundary.

The loan is aimed at businesses where insufficient personal capital or additional security is available to offer the lender access to funds through normal commercial channels.

We are always interested to hear from innovative and niche businesses.  Not only can we offer funding but also professional business advice to develop, grow and sustain the business.
