Business Advice on a ‘plate’ for Coventry and Warwickshire’s entrepreneurs - A new drive to engage entrepreneurs from a cross section of the ethnic minority business community got off to a flying start recently, when the first of six special workshops were held in Coventry City Centre. Business Link West Midlands, which provides a single point of access to the best manufacturing, skills and business support available, is looking to take its expertise across the area by inviting local entrepreneurs to innovative networking events that enable them to access this support. The first – held at Desi Dish Indian restaurant in Gosford Street – attracted over 50 businesses, many of which were owned by entrepreneurs of Indian, Pakistani, African and Chinese descent. The companies were able to network, share best practice and receive an introduction to the new Business Link service. There was also the opportunity to discover ways of accessing finance so that high-growth companies can look to expand and create employment in local communities.
