Enterprise Development Programme
The Project
The Enterprise Development Programme was created by the Docklands
Authority to meet the needs of local self employed business men and women and
to raise the level of interest in self employment among Docklanders.
How it Works
There are a number of elements to the programme. Firstly, the
Docklands Authority makes Enterprise Office Units in East Wall available to
local entrepreneurs at reasonable rates. Secondly, a local Enterprise Forum
has been established and the Docklands Authority publishes regular newsletters
featuring docklands enterprise initiatives. The third element relates to
training which takes place at a number of levels – business, community and
schools.
The Right Result
The combination of these activities has resulted in the
establishment of an environment where local enterprise is encouraged and
developed with much success.
