About us
The first of its kind in the Cotswolds, The Growth Hub Cirencester opened its doors in 2018 to Gloucestershire businesses of all shapes and sizes.
Located in the grounds of The Royal Agricultural University (RAU), the hub is an all-encompassing co-working environment focused on nurturing, inspiring, and supporting business development and growth.
At the heart of the Hub is our expert Business Support Services and mentorship programme, as well as training and networking events. Available to members and non-hub members, these services and events are fully funded by the UK government and our strategic partners.
This flagship destination is the perfect place for businesses to collaborate, network, and exchange ideas in a relaxed yet professional atmosphere. Surrounded by picturesque countryside with their very own bee hives, the Hub welcomes pre-start-ups, start-ups, sole traders and small to medium sized businesses.
Our partnership with the RAU and location on its Cirencester campus provides further benefits to members and those seeking our Business Support Services. With access to leading academics in their fields and policy experts in land use innovation, food and farming, as well as innovators and entrepreneurs of the future, there is no better place to build your business in the capital of the Cotswolds – Cirencester.
