The fully funded East Midlands NatWest Accelerator is now OPEN for applications for the September cohort.
Enterprise is an area that clearly defines NatWest. As the UK’s biggest bank for business, they understand that SMEs are the lifeblood of the economy and that have a responsibility to help them build back better.
At the heart of our support for business owners is our comprehensive Accelerator programme including coaching, insight and mentoring specifically designed to meet the needs of entrepreneurs who want to grow their business, regardless of geographic location or sector.
They provide successful applicants with wrap-around care, thought leadership, connectivity and access to shared workspace (in 14 UK locations or an entirely digital journey); all crucial for their success and a strong national economy.
Every business owner is different and the motivations for scaling a business can vary greatly. NatWest also recognises the power of being surrounded by a network of like-minded individuals and specialists. Developed over the past seven years, these programmes have revolutionised the way it supports entrepreneurs, and has proven to really work.
