The Humber LEP Business Growth Hub is seeking to commission suppliers to deliver a Humber Peer Networks Programme.

Peer Networks is a national initiative funded by the Department for Business, Environment and Industrial Strategy that is being delivered locally through the Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP) network and their respective Growth Hubs.  The programme’s longer-term aims are focused on reducing the UK productivity gap by helping business leaders find practical solutions to strategic and operational challenges. 

The Invitation to Tender is available on Yortender and requires the delivery of a series of Peer Networks (6 cohorts), with each cohort consisting of 11 owners or managers from the SME business community participating in each cohort.  Programme participants will benefit from access to a professional action learning facilitator as well as access to additional individual 1-2-1 support (coaching, mentoring, or advice) outside of the group sessions.
