Start-up help, right from the beginning…

CYBF knows that the first step of any new journey can be scary, difficult and confusing. This can be true when starting your own business as well. But we know that once you get started and are on your way your efforts will be rewarded.

However, you may still have lots of questions at the start. Through our vast network of dedicated Community Partners and our Entrepreneur-In-Residence (EIR) we are able to offer this pre-launch support. From how to get started on your business plan, to starting your application, to where to go for what and more. The Community Partner in your local area is a prime resource that is local to you. You can call them, email them or visit them and talk through your questions. In addition, CYBF has an Entrepreneur-In-Residence that can help too.
 
The EIR can provide advice, support and assistance in all areas related to starting a new business. The EIR is available nationally only via phone or email, and works closely with the Community Partners to ensure that you receive all the support you need.
