ntl:Telewest Business is providing a full communications infrastructure for The Generator Business Centre, Merton Council's new small business incubator. Small business tenants at the advanced centre will benefit from access to state of the art, flexible voice telephony and high speed internet access which can be adapted, through the ntl:Telewest Business network, to suit the needs of a business as it grows. The three year contract will run until April 2011. Located in Mitcham, South West London, The Generator is a long-term project by Merton Council that aims to increase the rate of small businesses starting and surviving in the borough. It provides flexible, cost-effective office space to new businesses combined with access to high quality support services and practical advice, coaching and mentoring. By cost-effectively removing administration headaches, The Generator enables young, growing businesses to concentrate on bringing their ideas to market quickly. The Generator signed its first tenants in March 2008 with the ntl:Telewest Business communications network going live in April 2008. It aims to incubate 100 businesses over its ten year lifecycle and provides space for 21 companies through a combination of offices and light industrial units. Accommodation is flexible - organisations can start by renting a single desk in a multi-occupancy office with all services included and expand as their business grows. The Generator will be officially opened in November 2008, as part of National Enterprise Week. The new network infrastructure comprises Centrex voice communication equipment and internet access. To meet the evolving needs of The Generator's tenants the initial 10Mbits/s service can be extended to 100Mbits/s through ntl:Telewest Business' flexible, local network. This is remotely managed and enables the centre's new tenants to be cost-effectively set up within 48 hours with full communications services. ntl:Telewest Business' comprehensive support and guaranteed response times ensure that companies in the centre have the communications required to underpin their success.
