Offices at the new Bingham Enterprise Centre, adjacent to the new Bingham Arena Leisure Centre on Chapel Lane in the town, will be open for business later this year.
Businesses based at the centre will also have access to a free dedicated business advice service courtesy of funding from the European Regional Development Fund.
Experienced business adviser Insan Farooqi, from East Midlands Chamber, will be offering a wide range of support, training and networking opportunities to ensure the Centre is a place for enterprise to thrive and grow.
Insan has been working in the business support and consultancy sector for more than 15 years where he has helped start-ups, SMEs and large companies across many industry sectors.
An expert in identifying challenges and ambitions, he develops business reviews and action plans to facilitate positive change and growth and will also be available to provide support to other businesses in Rushcliffe and not just those based at the centre.
He said: “The new Bingham Enterprise Centre is an exciting opportunity for businesses in the area that are looking to either get started or scale up and I’m delighted to be able to support their journey by offering assistance to companies across Rushcliffe.
“Whether it’s managing people, accessing finance or incorporating a business plan, there is always an area of running a business that could be aided by having an external voice to call on.
“There is plenty of business support out there but sometimes it can be difficult to understand where to begin, so my role is to work with them on a one-to-one basis to help them navigate and find the most suitable services for their individual needs.”
