GetSet Solent

GetSet Solent is a business support programme delivering specialist, fully funded access to finance and marketing support to help businesses with the potential and ambition to grow, through a range of engaging workshops, 1:1 sessions and support to access the GetSet Solent Grant Programme.

The programme focuses on helping businesses overcome the two biggest barriers to growth – generating sufficient profitable customers and accessing finance. We aim to increase your knowledge and skills, giving you the clarity and confidence to achieve your growth potential.

Our national service has already supported over 7,000 businesses across the UK that are looking to grow, who collectively turnover £2 billion. We’ve helped them raise over £70 million in growth finance, and to create over 3,000 jobs.

"The GetSet Solent programme is a business support programme for growth businesses in the Solent region and so it goes without saying that the Maritime sector is a huge focus for us! As a sector that generates billions for the Solent area, sponsoring the start-up of the year category cements our commitment to supporting and fostering growth within the maritime companies of the future."

GetSet Solent is available to SMEs across the Solent area, delivered by YTKO and is funded by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF).
