Taste of Enterprise
Taste of Enterprise works with people who are in the early stages of considering setting up a business. The project's role is to find ways to assist people to ‘test' their business idea in a low risk environment helping them on the road to becoming freelance or self employed. The project provides free space and support through its galleries and mini offices which people can use as their own space whilst they develop their business.
The types of businesses are diverse and include the creative sector, Art & Craft, Media, Music, Design, Textiles etc, incorporating formally trained and also self taught clients. Examples of the type of business the offices could help are: training & consultancy, counselling services, beauty and holistic, construction, even private detectives!!
