Scale Up Core
Scale Up Core Programme
Fully endorsed by the Scale Up Institute in 2022, Scale up Scotland’s core programme is an 18-month cohort based experience aimed at highly ambitious entrepreneurs with the potential and desire to grow sales beyond £20-£30 million.
We offer a blend of experiential, business and peer to peer learning, taking entrepreneurs through the critical components of business scale up. Whilst the central theme across the 18 months is building leadership capability for scale; we also take a deep dive into the key drivers of scaling a business successfully.
Topics covered include: Business transformation, Strategic people planning, Leadership development, Effective Communication skills, Customer Insight, Operations management, Risk and Incident management, Fundraising, Internationalisation, Sales Negotiation, Building effective teams and Decision making.
This programme is results oriented, delivered and supported by leading entrepreneurs, expert business practitioners and facilitators. The undoubted benefits of strong peer-to-peer learning are embedded throughout.
Participants need to demonstrate continual development both of themselves and their organisation throughout the programme. The time commitment is ten residential one and a half day events and is operated from our base at Blair Estate https://blairestate.co.uk
The programme is aimed at high potential firms headquartered in Scotland with a minimum turnover of £1m+, who can demonstrate strong year on year growth and an ambition to build a global business.
The programme is heavily subsidised by the Hunter Foundation with participants contributing a fee of £6k plus VAT.
[the fee includes accommodation and meals for the residential events at Blair estate]
