The enterpriseGY brand campaign, which hits the streets and airwaves this month, features a range of realistic business scenario’s to help illustrate the tangible benefits on offer and include; Tom the boat-builder, Melanie the dress-maker, Gina the florist and Lewis the builder.

The enterpriseGY programme is about encouraging people to set-up or grow successful, sustainable businesses in the Borough, and build a greater sense of enterprise amongst young people. The campaign aims to spread the word using everything from billboards to taxi-wraps and radio ads to giant bus-backs, taking the message to the heart of the Great Yarmouth community.

Richard Percy, Programme Manager for enterpriseGY, says “The programme has big ambitions and involves a range of partner agencies working together with local communities and businesses. Collectively, we want to make Great Yarmouth a better place for running a business and a better place for the people of Great Yarmouth to work in.”
