City Quay Business Centre
Elevator is Scotland’s leading private sector organisation dedicated to
supporting the entrepreneurs, inventors, disruptors, game changers and business
leaders of today and tomorrow. We have a desire to make a difference. As a
social enterprise, we work to support entrepreneurship and employability across
Scotland. Our mission is to recycle wealth back into the communities we support.
Our profits are reinvested into developing and delivering programmes, events and
initiatives around the themes of enterprise, employability and entrepreneurship.
Our aim is for anyone who is starting or growing a business to have access to
all the support they need to make it a success. Our thriving Centres for
Entrepreneurship offer a safe space to help ambitious entrepreneurs accelerate
their businesses through a range of highly effective accelerator programmes.
From the Elevator Programme and Academic Accelerators to our sector specific
programmes for creatives, company creative programmes for the energy and
sustainable mobility industries to our rural offering – there is something for
everyone. We deliver vibrant and inspiring business support to nearly 40% of
Scotland’s start-ups - covering both rural and urban space. The largest provider
of Business Gateway services in Scotland, we deliver support across Aberdeen,
Dundee, Angus, Perth and Lanarkshire. In addition, we have a network of Business
Centres, providing flexible, professional office space at 21 different locations
across the North of Scotland. These offer valuable community workspaces
containing a mixture of small businesses, training and meeting facilities. Our
vision for Scotland is clear - a national, connected approach that will
stimulate and support the development of an innovative, pioneering, progressive
and entrepreneurial society. Engaging and collaborating with partners, founders
and alumni, we are collectively making Scotland an inclusive, sustainable and
inspiring place in which to do business.
