About this Event

Meet the Council - The City of Edinburgh Council

You’ll be surprised at the range of ways the Council supports Edinburgh’s businesses to help them succeed. Our Meet the Council event will make it easier for you to speak to our teams on a wide range of topics such as:

  • answers to practical questions about business rates,
  • advice about growing your business, whether that’s finding a premise to highlighting business funding
  • what licenses you may need for new businesses
  • advice about apprentice schemes
  • how you can sell your services to the council and other public sector organisations.

Our partners will also bring their expertise and guidance as to how they can support from being recognised as a trusted trade service through the Edinburgh Trusted Traders Scheme through discovering about social enterprises to business support services from Edinburgh Chamber of Commerce and the Federation of Small Businesses.

Join us at the Assembly Rooms on 3rd February for this great opportunity to meet and chat with business facing teams at The City of Edinburgh Council and some of our partner organisations. This in-person event is your chance to ask questions, share your thoughts, and learn more about how the council works for, and with, businesses to make our city a better place. Don't miss out on this unique chance to connect directly with your local business support services!
