oyal Bank of Scotland is delighted to be the main sponsor of The Glasgow Business Awards 2017.
As a supporter of customers,
communities and businesses across this city since our first branch opened at the High Street on 15 September 1783, it feels particularly special that we are supporting this year’s 20th anniversary of the Awards. These Awards offer an opportunity
to celebrate the wealth of skill and depth of talent which exists here in Glasgow and offer a platform to showcase the qualities and resources which have made it a capital of enterprise for generations. Continuing to reinforce our support
for enterprise in Glasgow and right across Scotland is a real focus for us. And we recognise that business owners today are looking for more than a provider of financial services. They want
a bank that understands their business as well as they do, that’s simple to deal with and who helps them make the right connections, so they can concentrate on what’s important to them – growing their business. That’s why in January we launched
our Royal Bank Boost programme to businesses – free to everyone, whether they bank with us or not. As part of this programme, we have a team of specialists called Business Growth Enablers, who run free local events covering a range of relevant small businesses issues. These events can help to make sure businesses are equipped and future proofed in areas like making tax digital or the increase in cashless payments. They’re also
a perfect opportunity to meet other local entrepreneurs and create a network of contacts. It’s also why we’ve been speaking
to our customers across Scotland more recently about their goals and aspirations, helping them to do a financial health check on their business. And, we’re continuing to invest in our digital capability, building on the success of our 5-star Apple-rated app to develop online funding solutions. Whatever the next chapter in
Scotland’s economy looks like, we’re confident we will continue to be the Royal Bank for Scotland. And we’ll continue to be inspired by the many outstanding, entrepreneurial and creative stories we’ve heard about through these Awards. Our warm congratulations to all of The Glasgow Business Awards winners and finalists.
