social inclusion, and help achieve Glasgow’s Net Zero ambitions by supporting

fostering entrepreneurial inclusion within Glasgow’s diverse communities.

identify and support individuals who are considering self-employment but need

one mentoring and group sessions, build local partnerships, and ensure participants
are connected to wider support systems across Glasgow.
