News: Funding uncertainty for South Yorkshire International Trade Centre

The uncertainty of the new Business Link contracts through Yorkshire Forward have led the Sheffield Chamber of Commerce to state that 23 jobs are under threat at the South Yorkshire International Trade Centre. Yorkshire Forward previously channelled funding to Business Link South Yorkshire, which then used SYITC as a sub-contractor but it would be against EU rules for Yorkshire Forward to fund the centre directly. Sheffield Chamber is looking to retain the brand and seek to deliver services for businesses. The next SYITC event taking place in Rotherham is a "Trade Secrets" Export clinic on February 21.
