SMEs, individuals and budding entrepreneurs, South West Mayo Development Company, is pleased to announce another set of ‘Business Clinics' designed to support existing small businesses and SMEs experiencing difficulties or simply seeking advice on how to improve their business's performance.

The clinics, which will offer business owners a period of forty minutes with specialists in various fields, will take place at the organisations' Newport office on 10th December, and run from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. There will be five mentors available on the day, their profile is attached. You can see one mentor or book to meet with all five.

The aim of these short mentoring sessions is to come with a specific query/question and speak to a consultant who is an expert in that area.

Please reply to Lorraine ASAP, as places went extremely fast for the last clinic. Please include which mentors you would like to see.
