Finance assistance
Sheffield can potentially offer a competitive package of financial assistance to help companies with investment plans, we are one of only 2 UK cities able to offer up to a maximum of 25% support for eligible projects.
Creativesheffield's investment team can help individual businesses steer a route to the most appropriate finance package. We aim to give a realistic early assessment of what may be available and help projects through the application process.
Relocation Support
Many companies intending to locate for the first time in a new city will look to relocate senior managers to lead the project from their existing operations in other locations. To support the recruitment and embedding of these key personnel, Creativesheffield has established a tailored relocation service.
