It has been a very busy week at #Ballymena Business Centre! Always nice to finish with our weekly Seed Fund success story. Following #redundancy Steven Dennison decided to use his fifteen years’ experience and extensive contact list to go it alone as a Project Manager within the medical sector. #DennisonProjects provide project management, logistics and relocation consultancy services. Steven intends to invest the £500 to purchase a digital laser to assist with site surveys and various other technology to support his new venture. We wish Steven all the very best for the future.
