“This year’s NMD Enterprise Week provides support for local businesses and it couldn’t be timelier.
“The SERC business lunch links in with theme of NMD Enterprise Week 2022 which is ‘Make it Your Business’.
“This is a fantastic opportunity for local business owners and managers to build connections with staff from the SERC College.
“They can learn about the wide range of support and advice services offered at SERC’s Downpatrick Campus.
“Having a strong network of connections and knowing who to contact for support is essential for business growth and development.
“I would encourage anyone with an interest to get in touch with the College directly.”
Commercial Contracts Manager at SERC, Elaine Flynn said: “We are delighted to take part in NMD Enterprise Week 2022.
“Our networking lunch, in partnership with Down Business Centre, is free for local businesses to attend.
“It provides an opportunity to connect with SERC’s Training and Business Services teams who will be on hand to speak with entrepreneurs and employers about the range of support available through the College.
“There are from the Department for the Economy fully funded programmes to support training and innovation, to the NI Apprenticeship Scheme, to bespoke training.
“This is designed to help meet the needs of local businesses in these challenging times.”
