RIDA’s objectives are to ensure that businesses not only survive these tough times but also continue to grow and develop. Research has proved that the businesses that gained sound advice and support in the last recession gained larger market share and profile when the upturn came. RIDA has been able to demonstrate how growth can still be achieved in such times through its development programmes. The company strapline of “ develop, evolve, and prosper “has perhaps never been so apt”
