About Us

Business support suited to you

The Kent & Medway Growth Hub forms part of the South East Business Hub, the South East Local Enterprise Partnership’s overarching business support programme, which also supports local hubs in East Sussex and Essex, Southend and Thurrock. We help new and existing businesses find the most suitable type of business support available in their area.

Not sure where to start?

Our local team of Business Support Navigators can help you identify relevant programmes, initiatives or funding schemes currently on offer across Kent and Medway and can help you access them.

The South East Business Hub is here to help your business on the path to growth and prosperity.
