Stockport businesses with international ambitions are being invited to take part in a Growth Sprint event built on processes pioneered by Google.
The International Growth Sprint is coming to Manchester on 25th July, now in its 3rd iteration. It introduces businesses to high-impact growth experiments using Google’s famous Design Sprint process.
Hosted by The Growth Company and led by Sean Sankey of Much Clearer, the event provides participating businesses with immersive workshops to help companies tackle the key challenges holding back international growth, so that they can leave with a clear action plan, tailored to individual ambitions, that can drive the business forward globally.
Sean Sankey said:
“This is our third version of the International Growth Sprint now and we’ve learned a lot from the 200+ businesses who have taken part in the 12 events we’ve done since 2019. The last one in Manchester was over a year ago, so it’s great to be bringing back an updated format for 2024.
“This is not a passive experience – you and your team will roll up your sleeves and put your business through its paces. But the return is a focused and customized international expansion plan done in one day that would normally take weeks to develop.”
Although the tools used at the event are inspired by the methods Google uses to quickly validate ideas, the International Growth Sprint is for much more than tech businesses, and participating businesses can be from any sector.
Three decision-makers from each business will be guided through collaborative exercises and frank discussions. An expert facilitator will shine a light on the “elephants in the room” and leverage proven techniques to align your team on the make-or-break decisions holding back international growth.
Spaces are limited for this event. Businesses of all sizes are welcome but must have 3+ people available for the full day and a tangible ambition for international growth. Places can be reserved via Eventbrite.
