Superfast Business Wales Inspiring Action Workshop

Meeting Room Hire in Penarth

The Business Centre (Cardiff) Ltd was host to Superfast Business Wales who recently made full use of our conference room facility in the Vale of Glamorgan to run the first in a series of action workshops on how business in Wales can profit by taking advantage of Superfast Broadband. Superfast Business Wales is a fully funded business support service from Business Wales to help businesses benefit from digital technology and faster broadband. Superfast Broadband enables more to be done over the internet making use of better line speeds and capacity. However, it is not the technology that is important, but what your business can do with it.

During the workshop the Superfast Business Wales team gave an in-depth briefing and explained how they can help micro, small and medium sized businesses increase profits, improve communications and reduce costs through using easy to adopt technology. 

Business Wales workshop topics included:

  • An overview of the Superfast Business Wales Service
  • The business benefits of superfast broadband and associated technologies
  • How to help businesses understand, adopt and exploit superfast broadband
  • How to sell more to your customers – an overview of Customer Relationship Management systems
  • The impact of mobile – work anywhere anytime
  • How to sell more through Social media: an overview of Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn for business
  • Websites – sell regionally, nationally and globally
  • The Cloud – what is it and how can you use it to build your business?

Graham Davies from GD Graphics Ltd who attended the event said ” the presentation was really useful for business owners, managers and those thinking of starting up in business. It identified a broad range of topics to demonstrate how business in Wales need to take advantage of the rollout of superfast broadband services throughout the country. It’s important to stay abreast of developments in new technology such as cloud computing and digital marketing so that the business can survive and prosper in the coming years. Even though I am well aware of digital marketing and already use it for my own business the seminar opened my eyes to some useful cloud based services that will help me cut overheads.” 

The Business Centre (Cardiff) Ltd were extremely proud to host an event for the Superfast Business Wales scheme, with James Mason, Centre Manager of The Business Centre (Cardiff) Ltd saying, “To ensure that we make a positive impact in Wales, we need to keep moving forward and pushing the boundaries in all aspects of business, especially within the technology and broadband world. We are extremely proud that Superfast Business Wales decided to host a very informative event with us at The Business Centre (Cardiff) Ltd and we look forward to further embracing these new ideas and changes in the future. “
