Support to Start your business
If you live in North Tyneside, Northumberland, Newcastle or Gateshead, you can tap into hundreds of free business start up tools, resources and practical support designed to help you explore business ideas and take your first steps into launching your own business.
What is Enterprising North?
Enterprising North is an exciting new programme, designed to support individuals in North Tyneside, Northumberland, Newcastle or Gateshead, who are looking to start their own business or are in the early stages of trading.
If that’s you, you’ll get fully funded, personalised one-to-one tailored support from friendly regional advisors, practical next steps, plus access to e‑learning.
It’s all designed to help you explore what’s possible, build confidence, and move towards starting your own business in a way that feels right for you.
It brings together business support providers from across the region to provide expert advice, guidance and exciting opportunities to help turn your business idea or early-stage venture into a reality. TEDCO is primarily supporting individuals and early stage businesses in the North Tyneside area.
