Scaleup Partners work with each company to uncover the most challenging issues it faces based on the five key barriers identified by the ScaleUp Institute and then provide bespoke support to help overcome them. Each company defines its own objectives in partnership with the Scaleup Partner and they help the company to take the actions required to grow the business. 

Alongside the 1:1 support offered through the programme, companies can access other forms of peer to peer support from associate partners and approved provision.  As account managers, the Scaleup Partners signpost, introduce and steer participating companies to high level, relevant and valuable support and advice provided through our established wider network of providers which include local colleges and University of Newcastle Business School, the Scale-up Leader’s Academy run by the Entrepreneurs’ Forum Leaders Academy, Vistage, the British Business Bank and Barclays Eagles Labs – many of which are endorsed by the ScaleUp Institute.

The programme is also underpinned by on-line events (normally face to face), motivational and inspiring speakers and socials to enable companies to learn from their peers.
