BizFizz

BizFizz is an innovative programme for entrepreneurs focusing on start-ups, micro and small enterprises in areas experiencing economic disadvantage. It turns the passion and enthusiasm of individuals into a driving force for local economic renewal by mobilising the skills and resources within communities.

What BizFizz brings to the community:

• Dedicated coaching in entrepreneurship, and the importance of local wealth creation.
• Publicity and promotion of local enterprise within the community
• A panel of local people, including community leaders, teachers, planners, councillors, businesspeople and faith leaders, who can support entrepreneurs by providing key contacts and information.
• Increased confidence and sense of self-reliance among the community as a whole. A move from dependence on external solutions to generating your own and fostering development of local visions.
• A better networked and connected community with private, public and community sectors working together, building a culture of confidence.

"Potential entrepreneurs are outsiders. They are people who imagine things as they might be, not as they are, and have the drive to change the world around them." - Anita Roddick
