To what extent, if any, does your business positively impact the local community? Tell us what YOU can do for Stoke on Trent! Smithfield Works is custom designed so that it’s the perfect place for our community.

What are your business growth plans and ambitions? What is the future of your business? We want to know how our facilities can help you to get to where you need to be.

What would a space in Smithfield Works offer your business which currently isn’t available to you? We offer four types of workspaces, ranging from a drop in & crack on hot desk, connected and impressive meeting rooms, and more long-term private suites.

 

Be prepared to pitch!

Submissions will be reviewed by a judging panel, comprised of Stoke-On-Trent Councillor Abi Brown, Staffordshire Chambers of Commerce Head of Projects and Business Support, Tom Nadin, and a representative for Genr8 Developments. The panel will whittle the online submissions down to a shortlist, who will then be invited to attend an in-person pitching day direct to the judges on 6th March. Remember, it’s best to know your pitch inside and out so that you can demonstrate how your business is the perfect choice to win free, state-of-the-art hot desking space for 12 months at Smithfield Works.
