It has been another successful year for top performing Buckinghamshire Local Enterprise Partnership (Bucks LEP), with confirmation coming from the Government’s annual assessment of Local Enterprise Partnerships, which awarded Bucks LEP with ‘exceptional’ for its delivery.

Buckinghamshire Local Enterprise Partnership (Bucks LEP) are making available £2 million additional funding to support businesses in the county affected by the Covid 19 (coronavirus) crisis. The Bucks LEP Board held an Extraordinary Board meeting to approve the release of £2 million to be administered by its Growth Hub, operated by Buckinghamshire Business First, as part of the Buckinghamshire Business Resilience Support Fund. This funding is part of a co-ordinated support programme for business with the LEP working closely alongside Buckinghamshire Business First and Buckinghamshire Council.

Entrepreneurs with big ideas in health, technology and digital businesses now have the space to succeed following the launch of two purpose-built hubs in Buckinghamshire.
