Business Resilience

Unforeseen events and challenges can disrupt your business operations, but effective continuity planning and preparedness can significantly reduce the impact of emergencies on your business.

Did you know? Approx. 20% of companies will suffer a fire, flood, power failure, terrorism, hardware or software disaster. Of those without a business continuity plan:

  • 93% will experience significant data loss and will be out of business within five years.
  • 90% will suffer the total loss of a mission-critical facility and will go out of business within two years.

We have gathered resources, practical information and support your business needs to navigate disruptive situations confidently.

Funding & finance opportunities

Funding and finance can help businesses unlock new opportunities, so whether you're actively looking right now, or you're just dipping your toe into the water to see what might be available, our Funding and Finance webpage has got you covered.

As well as grants and finance options available now, handily split up into different categories depending on your circumstances, you will also find advice and resources on other aspects of business funding, including the different types available.
