Pixelwave Creative is celebrating after graduating from the Greater Manchester Growth Hub’s Spark2Scale programme.
Spark2Scale is a cohort-led support programme specifically designed to help aspiring businesses make the steps they need to fulfil their potential.
We were thrilled to be one of only 16 businesses within Greater Manchester selected for the programme’s fifth cohort. Spark2Scale offers local businesses collaborative masterclasses, personal mentoring, peer-to-peer problem solving − together with bespoke business support from specialist Hub advisers.
JP Woffenden speaks of his experience in setting up his own video production company and his involvement with the North West Spark2Scale Programme.
“I didn’t set out to be a business owner and had no business experience. After studying Creative Music Technology & Sound Recording at university, I learnt to shoot and edit video on the job while working with a corporate training provider, before going freelance into video production.”
“I enjoyed success working as a freelance videographer and high demand for my services from other video production providers soon led to me forging my own clients.”
“Since 2012, my business has grown organically and in 2016 I moved location from Yorkshire to Greater Manchester, rebranded and became a limited company.”
“Spark2Scale has given me the opportunity to learn the skills required to run my business better and also to scale my business quickly and confidently.”
“It was such a rewarding experience and wonderful to collaborate with other fantastic local businesses throughout the process across such a diverse range of industries, including accountants, interior designers, digital marketing, and retailers in food, beverages and beauty products.”
“I am grateful to the Growth Hub for accepting me on the Spark2Scale programme and their continued support in helping me to grow the Pixelwave Creative business.”
