In January 2014 the Government will launch a £30 million Growth Vouchers (GV) programme to test what impact strategic advice has on small business growth. The initiative will take the form of an expert marketplace for advice, with significant government funding provided to small businesses to pay for professional advice.
BCS is a key partner in the GV initiative alongside other professional associations including ICAEW, CIM, CIPD, and ACCA. We expect that hundreds of BCS members will see value in supporting small businesses in this way, as well as building their reputation and also educating the market about the critical role of IT in business growth.
