What We Do

Cool Ventures have been providing tailored, high quality business support and advice across the West of England for more than 8 years.

Having helped hundreds of small businesses to start, grow and thrive, we understand that one size of business support doesn’t fit all. We are dedicated to providing tailored business advice to every business and start-up we meet. We take the time to listen and understand your aspirations and challenges before developing a programme of support with you to meet your needs.

We can help you take your business to the next level. If your business is based in Bath, Bristol, Swindon, Wiltshire or Gloucestershire, get in touch with Cool Ventures to talk about how we can make a difference and to find out whether you are eligible to receive funded support.

Cool Ventures took a framework of ideas and turned them into a solid, functional and measurable plan for us. Very ‘Cool’ indeed. I am so pleased to be working with them.

We were introduced to Sue in 2017, and it has proved to be one of the key introductions of the year.  Sue has a wealth of knowledge, she’s enthusiastic, fun and hard-working.  She really believes in our business and has been fully committed to helping us.  The Cool Ventures workshop was inspiring and gave us a clear direction, helping us map out not only our short, medium and long term plans for the business, but our life plans as well.  Sue recommended that we apply for a grant to help move our business forward. She guided us through putting together an excellent, comprehensive and thorough proposal and cashflow forecast, and we were delighted to be awarded the grant.  Thank you so much for your help Sue!

My first thoughts on the business course run by Cool Ventures were ‘I hope everyone in Bath knows about this opportunity!’
The team made me feel completely at ease from the offset, especially as I had so many ideas for business going around my head.
To access such expert business accoutrements and knowledge from their own experiences was priceless.
My work and financial situation currently is complicated and as an ambitious individual I felt that the direction given by the Cool Ventures team has really installed confidence in me to take the first steps to becoming self employed.
From business plans to marketing and website building, the course covered all of this and more.
I feel very fortunate to have had this opportunity and would urge Bath council to invest again in such a fantastic project that progresses the people of Bath.
Many thanks once again to the Cool Ventures team!
