The Programme
The Scotland Can Do SCALE programme is a inclusive, high-growth entrepreneurial education initiative
Whether you're looking to trade internationally or developing new products and services, growth in business requires extensive investment and a lot of hard work. Results can feel difficult to predict, and processes can be difficult to implement. Scotland Can Do SCALE has been designed to make growth-orientated decisions more effective and easier to implement.
Combining teachings from some of the world’s foremost experts on entrepreneurship and business growth with unrivalled peer-to-peer networking opportunities, SCALE’s four-day intensive residential programme provides practical, structured next steps for attendees – taking theory into action.
Funded by Scottish Enterprise, Highlands and Islands Enterprise and the Scottish Funding Council with support from Entrepreneurial Scotland and the Scottish Government, the price of the programme is heavily discounted – allowing ambitious businesses world-class teaching, at a much smaller financial investment for businesses.
