An event, advertising the "power of mentoring" and aimed at businesses and entrepreneurs in Greater Manchester, is set to take place this week.

NatWest Accelerator and GM Business Growth Hub will host the event on Wednesday, November 20 as part of Global Entrepreneurship Week (which runs from November 18 to November 24).

NatWest Accelerator aims to help UK entrepreneurs grow their businesses, including by helping them to access support from organisations such as GM Business Growth Hub.

Libbie Mowbray, accelerator community manager for Manchester at NatWest, said: "Global Entrepreneurship week is a great way to celebrate and support our entrepreneurs.

"We are bringing together our community of NatWest Accelerator entrepreneurs with our amazing partners, The Growth Company and Digital Boost, to help businesses accelerate even further through the power of mentoring."

GM Business Growth Hub provides fully funded business support to businesses and entrepreneurs based in the city region.

Adele Cope, mentoring specialist at GM Business Growth Hub, said: "It’s always incredible to see the power that mentoring can have for people.

"It’s not only personally enriching, but it can also have a hugely positive impact on people’s professional success.

"Whether people are looking for someone to help guide them or thinking of giving back and sharing their experiences, we’d encourage you to come down to the event."

The event will take place at The Hub, 1 Spinningfields Square, Manchester.
