About this Event

As part of the BuildHER Programme 2026, Made For More International CIC is bringing women entrepreneurs together for a practical and empowering session designed to help you move your business forward with greater clarity, confidence and access to the right support.

Starting or growing a business can sometimes feel like you are trying to figure everything out on your own. But you don't have to.

Join us for Business Planning & Access to Local Business Support, delivered by Made For More International CIC in collaboration with the NatWest Accelerator and GM Business Growth Hub.

This session will help you better understand what it takes to plan for business growth while introducing you to the local support available to help you along the way.

• Business Planning for Growth: understand the key elements of a strong and practical business planning.
