Suppliers Support For Businesses
Solent Business Growth Network
In the
current economic climate you may feel that the future is uncertain
and there are very few opportunities. If you are thinking about
starting your own business or already have one up and running there
are lots of free websites and resources where you can get good
advice and ideas. However it can be a minefield and you sometimes
need to know the answer before you know what the question is. This
can leave you feeling that you have to do all this on your own.
SBGN is a cluster of independent business
owners who have come together to support the development of new
start-ups and existing small businesses within the Solent Region in
a completely different way.

The Business Collective
We are 2 businesses in 1 offering a fresh approach to ethical
and socially responsible practice. Keeping it local is also a key
principal of ours so we will be operating on a county-wide basis.
We are starting in Hampshire so, currently, these services are only
available to Hampshire based organisations. But don’t worry, we
intend to extend into other counties very soon!
Firstly, we are a membership based organisation who,
collectively with our members, want to make a difference! We want
to share our time, knowledge and resources with likeminded people;
people who, through their professional capacity, want to engage in
ethical and socially responsible practices. People who want to
connect others who share a common purpose and want to know that
their endeavours make that difference.
Our Brokerage service is a not-for-profit organisation that will
allow you to provide an ‘Offer’ to a fellow member and, in return
make a ‘Request’ for something in return. All ‘Offers’ will be
pooled and communicated via our website and you can either
‘Request’ something that is already there or stipulate what would
be of greater benefit.Initially, our suggestion is one
Offer/Request per year but we know that some members are keen to do
more! If you feel so inclined, then please do – the only condition
is that all new exchanges involve both an Offer and
Request!
