Business Support

 

Whether you're thinking of starting your own business, or working to make your existing business more successful, the Vale of Glamorgan's Economic Development team is here to help you.

 

Services to business

We care about business in the Vale of Glamorgan and are very aware that the way we provide our services can affect your business profits. 

 

We recognise that successful businesses contribute a great deal to the welfare of the local community and that the needs of businesses are different from those of individual residents. 

 

The Business Support Team is based at the Business Service Centre (BSC), Innovation Quarter, Hood Road, Barry, CF62 5QN.  As well as undertaking land and property searches and strategically managing the four principal town centres (Barry, Cowbridge, Penarth and Llantwit Major) the team undertakes day-to-day property management at the BSC in Barry and the Vale Enterprise Centre in Sully. The team also hosts a resident full-time Business Adviser employed by the local enterprise agency Business in Focus - www.businessinfocus.co.uk


Funded Microsoft Training

Your business and employees could benefit from a 95% EU funded Microsoft Office training course.
