The Enterprise M3 Growth Hub have announced the launch of a free new digital platform, the Enterprise M3 Community.

The innovative new Community platform is designed to help facilitate growth throughout the M3 corridor. It provides a free platform for discussion, collaboration and networking and is a source of information for businesses in the area.  

It launches as the LEP as a whole progresses its Local Industrial Strategy for the region’s growth and seeks regional businesses to test ideas and evidence. Innovation and enterprise, people and skills, and digital connectivity are all key themes.

The Community was created out of a need for a local communication and networking platform for the M3 region. Enterprise M3 Growth Hub clients have a place to access resources and network with each other, and ask questions of their community.

It helps to tie in all of our digital assets within one platform, with the objective to become the online communication hub between high growth SMEs, businesses, councils, partners and LEP.

The Community allows for online connecting and collaboration, live discussions adding value to core Growth Hub service. It acts as a feeder in to the Growth Service too, so helps the Growth Hub to find new businesses in the region to help with their fully funded business support.

It offers all Enterprise M3 partners and stakeholders a place to share their news, events and offers with businesses across the area, as well as showcasing their organisation to potential business to work with.

Offering a suite of business information and articles, business tools and templates, and discussion forum, the EM3 Community gives users a ‘hub for business discussion and resources across the M3 corridor'. Their Discussion Zone forum gives the opportunity to network online with like-minded people in their local area, without the restrictions of social media platforms.

For business promotion they offer the ability to post requests for quotations, project collaboration, tender opportunities and business offers, as well as areas to showcase your business, news and events. The Community offers a Marketplace where users can post jobs and opportunities to businesses in their local area completely free, and they will also be hosting exclusive events for Community members.
