Back to School for the Growth Advantage Programme

GAP Cohort 2019

With the return of face to face teaching, Strathclyde Business School has welcomed back the 2019 Growth Advantage Programme participants after an 18-month break.  The sustained impact of the Growth Advantage Programme on ambitious leaders of growing SMEs was recognised last year by endorsement from the ScaleUp Institute for its blend of peer learning and world class executive education – delivered in person. 

John Anderson, Head of SME Engagement, said, "We kept the cohort connected online throughout lockdown but it was so good to see how energised everyone was when they came back into the Business School.  Every business has faced challenging times during the pandemic but the support and understanding amongst the cohort felt incredible. 

"As ever, the ambitious owner sees opportunities rather than challenges and we are looking forward to helping this group of resilient leaders complete their GAP journey over the next couple of months."

If you have ambitions for growth and are looking for the opportunity to work on your growth plans with a group of genuine peers, you might like to join the sixth cohort of the Growth Advantage Programme which starts on November 18 2021.
