Interesting survey showing North East confidence outstrips other regions, in part due to an optimistic outlook for the leisure & hospitality industry. This mirrors @sageuk #SmallBusinessBigOpportunity research; 56% of regional SMBs are confident in their success,⬆️than UK average

The @LloydsBankBiz Barometer shows business confidence has dipped⏬️

However, confidence remains in line with the Barometer’s long-term average, consistent with positive growth✅

Thanks to @katymc10 for spending the day with us and helping us celebrate the start of the @Womens6Nations tournament this weekend at Kingston Park. What better way to mark the occasion than a visit to the Angel itself to test out the smart ball! #SageInsights #TikTokW6N

[Sage UK @sageuk]

Former England Red Roses Fly-Half, Katy Daley-McLean helped us kick off the week of the TikTok Women's Six Nations at the Angel of the North. 🏉

Interesting report from @IPPRNorth that reveals the impact of the North/South divide on the UK economy. Sage knows that the NE is a melting pot for talent and innovation, but, this needs to be nurtured, invested in and championed consistently and fairly. https://t.co/aaYc2SqDgw

[Paul Struthers @StruthersPaul]

Great news for a transformational development for the North East. The Sage will help bring the international stage to the region, supporting economic growth, increasing tourism and creating jobs.  https://t.co/ZQwEgFRK3o

"We don't see a doomsday scenario" — There are serious reasons for optimism when it comes to Britain's small and medium businesses, says Sage's Derk Bleeker. He sees a lot of innovation and growth happening, even in this "difficult time."

If you’re a business owner or know someone who is, the #SoundAdvicePodcast is a great free resource.
This season is titled “Entrepreneurs Unfiltered” and digs deeper into what it’s really like to run a business. Listen to the season premiere now: https://t.co/riwoQmBtqj

[Paul Struthers @StruthersPaul]

Research with @Cebr_uk compellingly shows the importance of #SMBs to our economy. They face challenges but are agile & can adapt differently to larger businesses. They continue to fuel the UK's economic growth and will generate 51.9% of all business turnover by 2025.

[Sage UK @sageuk]

#SMBs shouldn’t be underestimated in helping to recover & drive the economy as we head into the future. They face real challenges but our research with Cebr shows they are resilient & will fuel growth.
