The Small Business Academy was founded by Nikki Hesford, after a decade of frustration that the support that start-ups and SME's needed was lacking in many areas. Office space was too inflexible and expensive, training courses were unaffordable to many and often told you everything and nothing at the same time, sometimes leaving you more confused than when you started. Our Head Office and Coworking space is based in Blackpool, where business owners can find flexible and affordable hot desking, meeting room hire and training venue space. We have an array of training courses, and we are the delivery partner for Boost Growth Mentoring, supporting 3+ year old Lancashire business owners to achieve high growth potential through 1-2-1 mentoring.
