Commenting on the high calibre of the partners involved, Gareth Jones, Welsh ICE’s founder said;
“We are really happy to have the support of these partners, offering their world-class expertise at a key time for start-up businesses. It’s a real commercial advantage for the existing ICE community and incoming members to have access to this support every other day. We are delighted to also be extending this opportunity to the wider entrepreneurial public.”
Denise Roberts, Tax Director at Cardiff-based accountants Broomfield & Alexander said;
“At Broomfield & Alexander, we’re passionate about supporting promising start-up businesses, and there’s a wealth of entrepreneurial talent at Welsh ICE. We’ve seen the tremendous effort made by the team at Welsh ICE to support their members, and we’re looking forward to working together to help grow the next generation of Welsh businesses.”
Following a successful pilot at the centre, the workshops will now be run regularly every Tuesday and Thursday, with business owners able to access the support free of charge as and when they need it. ICE member Steve Morgan, of Morgan Online Marketing, said;
“I found the session with Greenaway Scott really useful. We covered a wide range of topics, and they couldn’t have been more supportive. It’s great to be able to bounce ideas and challenges off experts of such a high calibre, and I would certainly recommend others take the time to sit down and chat with them!”
Gareth Jones, Founder of Welsh ICE, said;
“Our partners are dedicated to reinvesting expertise in the future economy of Wales, and I think we should be proud of the Welsh community coming together to do the best for each other – it is a truly exciting time to be in business in Wales.”
The drop-in sessions will be running for three hours every Tuesday and Thursday between 10am and 1pm, and are open to the wider business community, not just ICE members, subject to availability.
The further drop-in workshop dates for September are below:
Thursday 17th September: Blake Morgan
