Partner to Succeed

The Partner to Succeed programme helps Cornish companies work together (or with businesses or organisations outside the county), in joint projects or ventures to pursue market opportunities that they would be unable to pursue on their own.

A collaboration can be as simple as two small businesses working together on a one-off local project. Or it could be a team of businesses establishing a joint venture or even a brand new company to create a new and innovative product with a global reach.

Provided you are a Cornish-based business, you can work with most organisations or companies, as long as the collaboration is commercially viable. Until businesses have reached the final stage where the collaboration is ready to begin, there is no charge for support, attending events or research into identifying partners.

Once the Collaboration is set to go ahead, YTKO will provide £1,500 worth of support, either from YTKO or another supplier for the cost of £750.  This support may be for market research, website development, marketing support, legal advice or another area vital to the success of the collaboration.
