Unlocking Potential

31/03/2026

With the help of Cornwall College Group – the home of Unlocking Potential – we have spent the last 25 years helping Cornish businesses thrive.

By working hard with employees, new recruits and with Cornwall’s business leaders and entrepreneurs, we’ve supported 6,000 SMEs, 2,500 start-ups, 2,600 jobs and delivered more than 30,000 hours of coaching and mentoring.

And, as anyone who’s had any contact with us in those 25 years will know, we’ve always been partial to all kinds of events, workshops and conferences. To anything that taps into and feeds Cornish businesses’ passion for connection, collaboration and growth. Which is why we've had 12,500 delegates on those journeys too.

So, if you’re one of those start-ups, sole-traders, entrepreneurs, employees, or business leaders – it's a heartfelt and poignant thank you from us.

It’s yet to be seen what the future of project funding in Cornwall looks like. But for now, it’s been a privilege and a pleasure to work alongside you, spending the last 25 years supporting Cornwall’s growth for the better.

End of an era vibes today at the final Unlocking Potential Breakthrough Workshop. But what an amazing last cohort of entrepreneurs. From market gardeners, textile artists, cake-makers and physios to sauna sites, specialist coaching and community sustainability, we are loving supporting this group with their sales forecasts, value propositions and marketing strategies. Check out the sample table! Let’s hope it’s see you later 👋 and not a final goodbye.

Making your brand stand out from the others while staying true to what it’s for (and what you’re like) is tricky.

You want to be noticed but not look like the competition.

You want to be human and authentic but to cut through the noise without just adding to it.

Our Brand Builders event (The Barn at Pengelly, 10-2, 10th Feb) brings together experienced, engaging experts to help you find your way to a brand which aligns closely with who YOU are as its owner.

Because everyone’s busy actually doing business, it can be easy for your brand to get away from you.

How did it end up looking and sounding like THAT? Why is there such a gap between what it’s like and what YOU’RE like? And how do you get to a place where you’re happy with what it is, and what it says about you?

Brand Builders (The Barn at Pengelly, 10-2, 10th Feb) brings together successful experts to help you answer those questions and bridge those gaps.

Including James Rutter from COOK frozen foods, who you can hear more from below.
