New Businesses: Lincolnshire
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, what steps his Department is taking to help support (a) start-ups and (b) scale-ups in (i) South Holland and the Deepings constituency and (ii) Lincolnshire.
Answered by Blair McDougall
Through the Industrial Strategy, Small Business Plan and Budget 2025, the government is backing scale-ups to scale and stay in the UK.
The Department for Business and Trade has integrated its support for businesses in a single, accessible place – the Business Growth Service. UK businesses, including those in Lincolnshire, can access our wide range of support via business.gov.uk. We're engaging more closely with founders and scaling firms, providing support to unblock barriers and help scale-ups realise their full potential.
We are also supporting the Greater Lincolnshire Growth Hub to provide support to businesses, including start-ups and scale-ups.
