In a campaign called Get Started, Regus offers free use of business centres for 50,000 entrepreneurs struggling with set up costs.
Regus, the leading UK and global provider of workplace solutions, has announced plans to support UK start-up businesses with an investment worth up to £10 million by offering free use of its business centres. In the Get Started campaign, backed by the British Chamber of Commerce, Regus calls upon other businesses to join the cause and do what they can to inject new activity into the UK economy.
Mark Dixon, CEO of Regus said: "In years to come people will look back to 2009 as a time of great economic depression. We all have a part to play in getting Britain working again, which is why we have launched the Get Started campaign. Whilst the government has announced plans to get the unemployed and small businesses moving again, it’s vital the private sector takes decisive action now to support people who want to set up their own business."
"We believe the key to kick-starting the economy is to help our entrepreneurs create new enterprise, the lifeblood of the economy. I’d encourage other private sector companies to support the movement and develop similar packages."
