YCF launches new website for North of England

by Editor, Web Wise Business (23 September 2008)

YCF has developed a new website to cover the North of England, with its main focus a searchable Directory of Young Companies in the region.

The North of England edition of Young Company Finance has been published every month for the past two years, and covers the young company market in the area covered by the three Regional Development Agencies (One NorthEast, Yorkshire Forward, and the Northwest Development Agency).

This region includes amongst others the cities and universities of Liverpool, Manchester, Leeds, Sheffield, York, Durham, and Newcastle. Like the sister publication in Scotland, YCF North includes reports of investment deals, news from investors and business support organisations, details of new financing and other business growth initiatives, details of business award winners and investment pitches, profiles of entrepreneurs, and much more.

Although the printed version of YCF will be retained for the present (until subscribers decide to do without!), the focus will now shift to the new website, where all articles and reports will first appear. The website will be supplemented by a two-weekly e-bulletin expected to reach initially over 1,000 organisations which have an interest in the sector, and giving a digest of articles from the website.

Several of YCF’s readers in Scotland already subscribe to the North of England edition, and it is now easy for others who wish to track what is happening over the border to follow suit.

There is no charge for registering to receive the e-bulletin, but those who wish to read the full text of all articles, or access the archive of articles and the online Deals Monitor, are asked to pay £50 + VAT for a year’s subscription.

If you would like to see the new e-bulletins, even for a trial period (there is an ‘unsubscribe’ option on the email), pleass register at:

The website has been developed by Web Wise Business. This is an online identity of Objective Associates Limited, a privately owned company who specialise in Microsoft .Net, database design, website development, search engine optimisation, and software development from its offices in the Stirling University Innovation Park.
