Practical partners in business growth

EQL Growth Partners is a consultancy built to support ambitious, values-led SMEs. We work with founders, leadership teams and small business owners across Wales and beyond to build businesses that are not only profitable, but sustainable, resilient and people-first.

We’re part of Equal Education Partners, a company with deep roots in partnership, fairness and social impact.

That means we approach growth with more than just numbers in mind. We care about how businesses lead, how teams feel, and how strategies are lived out day to day.

Our work focuses on four core areas:

  • Leadership and management – helping business leaders build confidence, clarity and strong decision-making

  • Marketing – turning ambition into visibility, reach and relevance

  • Growth and fundraising – supporting businesses to access funding and plan for scale

  • Talent and people development – helping teams grow with purpose and stay engaged through change

Who we work with

We work closely with a wide range of SMEs, from first-time founders and family-run businesses, to growing teams preparing to scale. Our clients span sectors including tech, education, creative services, retail, manufacturing and more.

Some are at the early stages, with big ideas and limited resource. Others are navigating investment, building teams or making hard decisions about their next step.

Wherever they are in their journey, we meet them with respect, flexibility and a focus on practical progress.

We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all consultancy. We believe in honest advice, useful frameworks and real conversations that lead to action.

Our values in action

We’re proud to be part of a wider mission through Equal Education Partners, one that puts people and fairness at the centre of growth.

Our consultancy is shaped by four core values:

  • Partnership
    We work alongside you, not above you. We listen, we challenge, and we stay invested.

  • Fairness
    We believe every business deserves access to honest, high-quality support, not just those with big budgets.

  • Ambition
    We’re here for businesses who want to do things well, not just fast. We support bold ideas and sustainable outcomes.

  • Practical innovation
    We help you improve what matters, with tools that make sense and advice that gets used, not just filed away.
