Our New Report: Democratising Entrepreneurship 2.0

We are excited to announce the launch of our new independent report of our service, which shows that libraries are engines of economic recovery and growth.


The new Democratising Entrepreneurship 2.0 report reveals the national impact that the Business and IP Centre Network has had over the last three years, from April 2020 to March 2023.

  • 336 new businesses

  • £3.6 million gross value added (GVA)


Of those people who have used our services:
