SMALL Cambridgeshire firms with potential for growth can benefit from a range of business workshops to be held at venues throughout the county.

The sessions are part of the Inspiration for Growth programme, supported by the Greater Cambridge Partnership, and will cover topics such as social networking, search engine optimisation and successful recruitment.

Venues will include the St John's Innovation Centre, the South Fens Business Centre and the Boathouse Business Centre.

Businesses with fewer than 50 employees and a turnover of less than €10million are eligible for the programme, which also includes individual one-to-one surgeries with advisers.

Nigel Brown, chairman of Greater Cambridge Partnership, said: "The network of contacts and expertise that St John's Innovation Centre has means that every business experiences considerable benefit from involvement in the programme, allowing them to move forward with greater confidence."

David Gill, managing director of St John's Innovation Centre, added: "Many of the companies we see across Cambridgeshire are still growing and planning increased growth, so we need to do all that we can to encourage and facilitate their development.

"The workshops are covering topics that any business wishing to grow will need to manage as part of their development."
