Business Support
Support for business in Leeds
There’s a wide range of support available for small and medium-sized businesses in Leeds and West Yorkshire. Our team of Business Growth Managers provides a single point of contact and access for all business support and funding in the city.
We also organise a series of 'Living Lab' business support masterclasses in collaboration with Leeds Beckett University. These provide business owners and decision-makers with the opportunity to share best practice, learn from one another and find out more about some of our business support programmes. Hit the button below to join us for the next session on Thursday 25/9/25.
We can help you to access...
- consultancy advice to help your business grow
- finance to support investment in premises, machinery, equipment and digital technologies
- leadership and management development for your senior team
- apprenticeship training for new starters and existing members of staff
- export support and advice on trading overseas
- expert advice on reducing energy costs and the carbon footprint of your business
The right support at the right time
We can also act as a gateway to the Council and its services. Whether it’s planning, highways, or business rates, for example, we can help find the right person to answer your questions or solve a problem. There’s also help for new start businesses and people thinking about setting up their own business.
