X-Forces are celebrating the launch of their 500th business as they reach a milestone in providing support to ex-forces and their families.
Working alongside X-Forces has allowed ABF The Soldiers’ Charity to reach a wider range of soldiers, veterans and their families wishing to start their own businesses and embark on their new, post-Army career.
Brigadier (Ret’d) Robin Bacon, Chief of Staff at ABF The Soldiers’ Charity said of the partnership: “Working with X-Forces has allowed The Soldiers’ Charity to provide a new range of support to our beneficiaries. Reaching this milestone really shows the commitment that has been made to support the men and women of our Armed Forces who want to start their own businesses. The Charity is very proud to be working alongside X-Forces.”
Since its launch in July 2013 X-Forces has nurtured and guided 500 new businesses and facilitated £5,307,275 in seed funding, as an official partner of the government’s Start Up Loans Company.
