Supporting entrepreneurial spirit
People in the South of Scotland are skilled and entrepreneurial, working across a wide range of sectors, and at different scales. SOSE works with individuals, businesses, social enterprises, and community groups at every stage, and will identify the right resources to help you get started, grow or build momentum towards your goals.
Unlocking potential
SOSE works in close partnership with other local and national bodies and organisations. We all help each other to tap into resources and knowledge, so that we can think bigger and unlock the great potential of the South. We also help you to join the dots, and proactively link your local project into the strategic picture, including alignment to themes such as Net Zero and Fair Work.
Our direct link to the Scottish Government helps us to amplify your impact, and keep you well informed about opportunities. For more information on this, see the Regional Economic Strategy.
