Partner Services
Calling all businesses and social enterprises in Blaenau Gwent, Caerphilly, Merthyr Tydfil, Rhondda Cynon Taf and Torfaen!
HOVIP is developing new partnerships to bring relevant services (e.g. training and consultancy), to the attention of our businesses and social enterprises.
These services are being delivered by individuals with industry experience at venues within and outside the Valleys as well as on-site at customer premises.
In particular, HOVIP is partially subsidising agreed provision, with Further Education Colleges and Universities, for a limited number of businesses and social enterprises.
Browse our partner pages to see what is on offer and how your businesses can benefit.
