Salesforce is teaming up with Enterprise Nation to offer a grant of £5,000 for small businesses.
This will help them as they reopen, adapt their business models and get back to some kind of normality. Salesforce is offering a total of $1m (£920,000) in support to businesses across the UK.
Funding will be administered by Enterprise Nation through a selection process. If your initial entry is shortlisted, you’ll be invited to send in a video pitch with an introduction to your business; how your business has been affected by coronavirus; and how securing the grant will help your business, on what it will be spent and how it will positively impact the community.
Small businesses with 2-50 employees can apply for the scheme. Be aware that the process will be staggered. Firms in Northern Ireland can apply between 18 May and midnight on 24 May and the rest will open as follows:
Midlands: 1-7 June
South of England: 15 -21 June
Scotland: 29 June – 5 July
Wales: 13-19 July
North of England: 27 July – 2 August
Companies that apply for the grant will also have access to Enterprise Nation membership, including free half-hour consultations with experts in marketing, strategy and
