Available through this link and the council’s social platforms, the survey provides an avenue for businesses of all sizes and sectors to air their views. By actively participating in the survey, businesses will play a crucial role in shaping the support that the council seeks to provide.
The information from the survey will be used to complement and enhance the two digital programmes that currently support businesses in the borough – the
ASK Programme, which provides tailored mentoring support to help businesses understand which technology would benefit their business and how it could be implemented and Tthe Digital Transformation Flexible Fund, which provides grants of up to £20,000 to support businesses purchasing digital technology to enhance their businesses.
