Multiple Promotions
A Partnership
One Cornwall seeks to promote
events through all of the routes
available to the partner/sponsor
group. This already includes
Television, Radio, Social Media
and Business Networks but with
your help this can grow to be far
stronger and more effective.
Each additional community, or
contact group that can be added to
the promotional network will add to
the attendance and viewing
audience for every participant.
That community or contact group
could be your social media
network, your contacts database
or a business network or group
you are part of.
Promoting Local
Trade Europe Wide
One Cornwall events will help local
people to understand what great
skills, knowledge, products and
services there are available on
their doorstep.
For those with the capacity to grow
and particularly those able to
supply products and services to a
Europe Wide market the TV
exposure takes the opportunity for
all to a new level.

3. The Board You
Can’t Afford
Cornwall and Scilly are heavily
populated with SME and Micro
businesses. Our unique environment,
core industries and location create
some difficult challenges for our
business community, but at the same
time some terrific opportunities.
Every business has needs for
expertise across a range of skill sets
if it is to develop into a robust
organisation, not reliant upon
individuals.
The transition from a micro business
heavily reliant upon individuals, to an
organisation capable of surviving and
thriving through times of personal
challenges is one that many micro/
SME’s struggle with.
Our Cornwall events will demonstrate
that for those in need of support for
business development, the skills
exist. Not only that but they exist
close to your doorstep and are willing
to help.
Through a positive supportive
process “Advisory Boards” can be
created to enable a business to gain
the skills and knowledge they require
to make the transition “The Board
You Can’t Afford”.
Systemisation will often involve
collaborations which open
opportunities for all concerned to
overcome underemployment and
gain access to profitable contracts.
Newquay Airport and Aerohub - Connectivity is Key
Connectivity is Key
Living and working on a peninsula whose transport links have
had wholly disproportionate spending by successive
governments (South West £19 per head - South East £792
per head) provides logistical challenges. In order to
overcome those challenges we need to build a reputation for
quality products and a demand for them.
Digital communications (Internet, TV, Radio, Social Media,
Email, Online Meetings) allow us to promote our businesses
to the rest of the world and boost that demand. One Cornwall
aims to help our businesses community take advantage of all
of these essential media, by making them more accessible
and affordable.
Physical connectivity is also essential. One Cornwall aims to
help with this locally through events and nationally by
connecting businesses to the expertise they need to
transport their wares around the world.

Investment in Business
Many great business ideas are hatched every day, but very many do not progress
to generate wealth due to a lack of investment and necessary skills.
An “Investor Ready” business needs to demonstrate that a team is in place
capable of delivering a well structured business plan.
One Cornwall aims to connect businesses people with the ideas and capacity to
grow and generate wealth, to the skills they need to create a winning team
through the “Board You Can’t Afford” process.
Whether you have a great idea, or the skills to help those with an idea, we want to
hear from you.
Working with our media and business partners who all have professional connec-
tions and links to investors and funding solutions across Cornwall and beyond we
can help an “Investor Ready” proposition achieve its goals.
