"But at Business Link we are always exploring new ways in which we can do more.

"We have put in place this sustained programme of events that will run until the middle of 2010, providing flexible and innovative support for North East businesses."
Each session will be delivered to a maximum of 20 businesses, with research carried out beforehand to identify the most pressing issues facing them attendees and what can be done to help.
Subjects to be covered will include managing cashflow, legal issues and redundancies, negotiating with banks, minimising risk and maximising profit, raising finance and risk management.
