This is Two Zero

We’re a specialist business support service helping equip scaleup business leaders with the tools and skills to grow their business 20% year on year.

Our story

Two Zero was founded in 2020 by Lancashire County Council to help and inspire leaders of companies to grow 20% year-on-year.

We have since fully supported 65 scaleup businesses. Over 96% of these businesses have grown 20% in revenue and employment.

Throughout the year we run a series of funded programmes that help ambitious Lancashire business leaders develop their scaleup mindset and put their business on the path to high growth, playing a part in growing the Lancashire economy.

As well as our programmes, we create and share regular helpful insights on scaleup topics, bring scaleup leaders together through events and work with regional and national organisations to help develop the scaleup business support ecosystem.

The power of scaleups

Nearly 60% of the UK’s SME economy, about £1.3 trillion, is generated by less than 0.5% of all SMEs.

These high-powered businesses are known as scaleups – businesses with average annual growth in employees or turnover greater than 20% over three years.

For Lancashire, these companies will generate sustainable jobs, improve supply chains and contribute more to the local economy.
