About this Event

Running a business in today’s climate isn’t easy - but DMU Business Solutions is here to help.

Join us for the official launch of DMU Business Solutions, a new initiative from DMU designed to provide practical, expert support for Leicester’s SMEs, freelancers, and third sector organisations.

With Leicester’s SME five-year survival rate currently below the national average (35.6%), there’s never been a more important time to strengthen the support available to local businesses.


About DMU Business Solutions

DMU Business Solutions gives you access to tailored advice and technical expertise, designed around the real challenges you face - from operations and finance to HR, marketing, exporting, and sustainability.
No jargon, no long waits - just clear, concise, and practical support to help you move forward with confidence.

Our friendly team from DMU’s Faculty of Business and Law, including experts from Leicester Castle Business School, combines hands-on business know-how with the latest research knowledge to help you grow.


What you’ll get

At the launch, you’ll discover how DMU Business Solutions can help your business grow through:

  • One-to-one, tailor-made advice and guidance
  • Practical help with planning, marketing, and productivity
  • Technical expertise in areas such as strategy, automation, HR, and project management
  • Specialist knowledge from DMU academics, including law, risk, and compliance
  • Connections to local experts, partners, and changemakers

More information about how the scheme works will be available on the evening, or you can head to our website.

Refreshments and light food will be served on the evening.

This initiative supports DMU’s global commitment to the UN Sustainable Development Goals, particularly SDG 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities.
