The Enterprise Network (TEN) nurtures new and growing business in Wiltshire, as well as supporting more established businesses.

Led by Wiltshire Council, TEN attracts funding from the UK Government and EU, and it partners with a number of local and national initiatives.

TEN is here to help fledgling businesses in our area meet the exciting challenges and opportunities that await them. In turn, these businesses generate jobs and grow the local economy, bringing a broad range of benefits to the area.
