A survey by the Institute of Asian Professional (‘’IAP’’) found Asians – who make up 4% of the UK population – accounted for 10% of economic output.’’
Within the North East, where the lowest proportion of the population are of Asian background and entrepreneurship as we have seen is low, Asian entrepreneurship is not twice as great as the British White population but three and a half times as great.
In 2011 we helped set-up 92 New Businesses, our members created over 400 jobs and we trained 1000's. We are now working with NewcastleUXL placing apprentices.
Asian Business Connexions will enhance the significant contribution Asian businesses make to the North East’s economic and general well-being.
