Our partners
We work with a wide variety of organisations across a number of different initiatives, from programme participation through to taskforce membership.

“Productivity matters. No growth for over ten years means people are poorer and the UK is weaker, competitively, than we should be. We want to change that and we know it can be done. We’re stepping up, as businesses, to support a movement across the UK. With this support we will work with businesses, with sectors and in places right across the country to build a better decade.”

“GSK has been a supporter of Be the Business since its inception and co-developed the highly successful Mentoring programme. GSK have seconded executives directly to Be the Business in order to help scale the programme to allow SMEs all around the country to access strategic guidance from experienced executives.”
