Forum of Private Business
The Forum of Private Business is a proactive, not-for-profit organisation, providing comprehensive support, protection and reassurance to small businesses.
Our aim is to deliver an exceptional service to our members, adding value through the provision of practical, tailored solutions that promote business success, and by being their voice in government.
All of the Forum of Private Business' campaigns are based on the views of our members. We talk to our members in various ways: via surveys, by telephone and face-to-face contact. We also collect data electronically, which enables us to source opinions from hundreds of businesses within a matter of hours.
The Forum of Private Business works to bring businesses together with their own elected representatives. Members vote in a ballot in our quarterly newsletter, Referendum, adding comments for us to send to their MPs, MEPs, MSPs and AMs. Referendum is a tool that business-owners have been using since 1977 to make their voices heard.
The Forum of Private Business has more than 30 years' worth of experience of accredited research into the small business community.
