Overview

Our team will help you take the right steps to start up, protect and grow your business.

Develop your ideas with our market research and company databases, learn new skills at a workshop or have a confidential one to one. If you can’t visit us, you can still take advantage of the British Library’s expertise by registering for regular webinars, from wherever you are in the world.

Speak to our advisers for help and information on taking the first steps to self-employment, and take advantage of free full access to the library service's computer and internet facilities.

Sadly the Business and IP Centre is currently closed other than for self service use of the databases by appointment only.  Please email bipc@vivacity.org
