What does your business need to help it grow?
We know that every business is different, and needs a different kind of support in order to thrive. All of our memberships are designed to give our members the skills and confidence that they need to take their idea to market and then grow sustainably, year on year.
If you’d like to join our entrepreneurial community and make use of the superb facilities and resources we have here at the Centre, take a look at our Tenant and Virtual membership options. These memberships are designed to provide you with affordable, modern, convenient office space, and administrative support such as out of office mail and call handling. And if you also need strategic or business support, we’re here to help.
Network membership
Alternatively if you’d just like a strong team around you to help you get your idea off the ground, our Network membership is designed to give you all the benefits of our support and mentoring when you already have your own office, or don't yet need a permanent base.
