About

Manchester City Council awarded a contract to Break into Business LTD for the delivery of the 'Build a Business in GM Libraries' workshop programme.

The programme was structured around a satellite model of delivery and targeted engagement, working with 8 Greater Manchester library partners to deliver satellite workshops.

It aimed to make the Business & IP Centre Manchester's resources and expertise accessible through established community hubs, upskill other Greater Manchester libraries to deliver their own business services, and develop a lasting, sustainable and embedded support infrastructure for the local economy.

The focus was on helping entrepreneurs from diverse backgrounds commercialize their ideas and set up successful enterprises.

The contract value was £40,100.
