Weather the Economic Storm with Supply London

Recently, the government committed to a strategy of increased public sector spending to stimulate the UK economy. This presents an opportunity for SMEs to potentially smooth troughs in business activity with new business from the public sector.


The Supply London programme is funded by the London Development Agency and the European Regional Development Fund, and is delivered by Pera London Business Support Centre to assist small businesses in London in their efforts to be a great supplier and win future contracts. The programme includes information events, workshops and one-to-one specialist advice all designed to help companies improve their competitive edge and play a bigger part in London’s supply chain.
