Regional Growth Fund Road Show
Time: 10am - 1.30pm
This road show, run by the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS), will provide participants with detailed information on the bidding and appraisal process of the Regional Growth Fund. They will have the opportunity to join a “clinic” that will offer advice on preparing good quality bids.
The Regional Growth Fund was launched on 28 October 2010 and will provide support for projects that lever private sector investment, offer significant potential for sustainable economic growth and create new private sector employment. It will particularly help areas and communities currently dependent on the public sector, make the transition to private sector led growth and prosperity.
The road show will give you the opportunity to network with other potential bidders. To reduce costs it would be helpful if participants could bring copies of the RGF forms and guidance to the event if they think it would be useful to them on the day. Both are available on the BIS Website.
Guest speaker at the road show will be Sir Ian Wrigglesworth, Deputy Chair of the Independent Approval Panel, who will reaffirm that the fund is open for business.
Places are limited and will be allocated on a first come first served basis. If you would like to attend please contact Sujatha Krishnan by email, [email protected] by 13th December.
