The National Enterprise Network is the membership body for organisations committed to the support and development of enterprise. Members are drawn from enterprise support organisations that provide independent and impartial advice, training and mentoring to new and emerging businesses. As well as enterprise agencies, members also include Chambers of Commerce, local authorities, specialist enterprise providers, universities and corporate organisations.
Key activities include representing the sector with key stakeholders in central government, official agencies and the private sector, providing unique membership products and services to members and managing national business support contracts such as the Barclays Let’s Talk Business series and the self-employment component of the Work Programme in parts of the country.
According to data collected for 2010/11, our network of enterprise support organisations supported over 98,000 pre starts, 63,000 start ups and 160,000 established businesses - helping over 320,000 clients across the country last year alone.
National Enterprise Network is a trading name of National Federation of Enterprise Agencies.
