The Catalyst for business success
Corporate and commercial law experts offer legal support to help businesses scale up through new TBI Catalyst framework
An unprecedented year has given
us all time to also think about business . Following lockdown and the ongoing Covid-19 situation , questions are being asked as to how we kickstart the economic recovery .
As government assistance comes to an end or is reduced , business owners are looking for ways to ensure they bounce back .
Tilly Bailey & Irvine partner Craig Malarkey says the law firm ’ s new Catalyst initiative can help existing businesses and potential start-ups key help during unprecedented times .
“ The Tees Valley is well placed to ensure that our businesses not only survive but succeed ,” says Craig .
“ With technology at the heart of projects such as plans to make Middlesbrough the digital city and
Teesside University ’ s Launchpad , the region has a strong history in innovation and entrepreneurialism .
“ Supported by a commercially-focused Tees Valley Combined Authority and mayor through initiatives such as “ Buy Local ” and the investment opportunities available , our business leaders find themselves at the heart of a recovery which we all hope will be V-shaped .
“ At TBI we have been supporting business and entrepreneurs for nearly 180 years . Our recently launched TBI Catalyst is a framework for early-stage , fast-growth businesses that facilitates access to legal services in a way that can help take them to the next level .
“ It is designed for entrepreneurs who are looking to start up or scale up their business and would like access to advice and guidance from expert commercial solicitors .
“ If your business is ready to take the next step or you have a new business idea you are ready to scale up and need assistance with legal advice around market expansion , equity investment , debt finance , commercial leases or purchases or hiring new employees , the TBI Catalyst team can help .”

Navigating the longer lasting effects of Coronavirus on your business
Ian Kelly , Tax Partner at Davies Tracey , encourages businesses still working on their ' new normal ' to use their trusted advisers in new ways to maximise potential .
In the last issue of Tees Business , we spoke about the difficulty in keeping track of what day of the week it was at the time .
Since then , as we all settle into a ' new normal ', a new challenge has become evident - that of keeping track of Government help for businesses . Schemes both past and present are the focus of many questions from our clients , whether seeking clarification on what funding they ' re entitled to , or when to claim , or how best to use a grant .
It goes without saying that your accountant should be keeping you up to date with the basic information surrounding these schemes . What they , or you , may not have considered however is using a cash flow injection to access new or previously unused services from a trusted adviser in order to maximise business potential .
Here at Davies Tracey for example , we are finding that demand for our Business Planning service has increased , helping clients to re-strategise and set goals , budgets , and profit forecasts accordingly .
Credible service professionals across all sectors should be using their knowledge on individual clients to widen services offered in a way that will truly bolster their business for the coming months and years .
Furthermore , experience shows that the businesses most open to exploring new avenues will be the ones to successfully navigate the longer lasting effects of Coronavirus .
