UK Small Business Week Arrives

What appears to be the UK’s first Small Business Week will begin on Monday 29th October.  Initiated by BT Business and supported by many of the usual suspects including the British Chambers of Commerce and Business Link, the week includes various activities and events aimed at small businesses.

These will include round table discussions, webinars, podcasts and advice clinics designed to help startups and other companies do better business and champion Britain’s small business community.

The week also expects to address a number of themes including the environment, flexible working, the web and reveal data from a survey on the state of the ‘SME nation’. 

It’s a little strange that this week should be timed just a matter of days ahead of Enterprise Week, but arguably is aimed at small businesses themselves, rather than the education sector, which some would say was Enterprise Week’s remit.
