NBV works closely with other organisations to increase the chances of success e.g. HMRC, local Banks and local authorities. The support provided across the East Midlands has contributed greatly to the local economy and also helped people find a different way to build their future for example as a result of redundancy.

Richard Dearden, NBV's Chief Executive said

"We have always been relevant whether the economy is in recession or growing because even in good times people want to go out on their own. In this climate we are seeing a mix of people coming to us for advice. There are those looking for work for some time looking to doing their own thing as an alternative, and those who have perhaps been made redundant from senior positions deciding to use their skills and redundancy payments to set up their own business"

As a not-for-profit organisation NBV continues to provide independent business advice, training, coaching and mentoring service to established business also through its “Grow Your Business” program and “Master Classes”. NBV is able to provide these and other plans of in-depth support to many areas of the East Midlands with subsidy through its European programs and enterprise orientated funding schemes. This includes the office space and virtual office tenancy services. See how we can help you start your own business by attending our Free Business Start-up Seminar in your area.
