The ERC have partnered with business support organisation Oxford Innovation to create a new GROWTHmapper® Recovery diagnostic and recovery planning tool. The tool helps SMEs assesses their immediate and future needs in the context of the Covid19 crisis, working in conjunction with an accredited GROWTHmapper® coach or advisor.

A suite of tools developed by the ERC, and building on the findings from our major research project Building Better Business Resilience accompanies the GROWTHmapper® report, giving SME leaders valuable resources to help develop a business survival and recovery plan. Oxford Innovation has many years of experience in incubating and accelerating high growth businesses in the UK through its network of Innovation Centres and the provision of specialist coaching services and funding support. The ERC has been delighted to work with them to ensure our research insights feed into practical support for SMEs at this crucial time.
