Manufacturing Industry Support

The Greater Birmingham and Solihull Growth Hub's Industry Support page directs manufacturers and other sector businesses to business support programmes available from the Growth Hub's dedicated partners across the Greater Birmingham and Solihull area. Users can select their industry, including a specific Manufacturing category alongside Creative, Digital & Technology, Social Enterprise, Life Sciences, Health and Social Care, Energy Technologies and Mentoring, to see relevant support available to them. The page also promotes wider Growth Hub services including expertise and advice, and the option to speak to an adviser directly, with a call-back request form covering areas such as starting a business, growing a business, funding and finance, and protecting a trading name or idea. The page is largely a signposting and contact hub rather than a description of a single defined programme, linking through to partner-delivered support for manufacturing businesses in the area. Success stories referenced include Growth Hub support for a skills service client, a digital marketer establishing a new business, and intellectual property advice for another local business.

Aimed at businesses, including manufacturers, operating in the Greater Birmingham and Solihull area; no further formal criteria are stated on the page.
