Bursting with ideas? Burning with ambition? Or just got an inkling that you might want to work for yourself one day?

It doesn't matter what stage you're at, if you've got any previous experience or even if you haven't got an idea yet.  You've come to the right place.

Every day people start businesses for all sorts of reasons and in lots of different ways. Last year we talked to over 6,000 people in Tyne & Wear about starting a business, so you're in good company.

Business Link is on hand to help you get your idea off the ground. We can provide access to a wide range of information, advice and resources to help you when setting up a business.
