New scheme launched to aid firms working in film, TV and games

Creative Enterprise, part of Creative UK, has announced the launch of a new specialist business growth programme designed to help screen businesses scale and build sustainable growth.

Titled Fast Forward, and with funding from BFI National Lottery funding, the scheme is designed for established creative businesses working in industries including film and TV and games.

The programme, which is sponsored by Barclays, will combine expert-led workshops, peer learning and tailored mentoring designed to address challenges faced by growing businesses.

Kate Sanders, senior programme manager at Creative Enterprise, said: "Fast Forward has been shaped by everything we’ve learnt from supporting hundreds of screen businesses over the years. The result is a programme that is practical, tailored and grounded in real business experience. We know that growth isn't just about increasing revenue. It's about building strong leadership, developing the right business systems, and putting the foundations in place for long-term success.
