What we do

Era Ltd has an extensive service, consultancy and product profile, supported by considerable in-house and associate experience in all aspects of regeneration and economic and social development. These are characterised by a method of working that builds new working relationships with public, private and community sectors. There are seven distinct aspects to this work, but increasingly these are being taken up in combinations by clients seeking a more holistic approach to their particular issues.




Analysis, Prospectus Building and Action Planning

This is a consultancy package that can link up innovative thinking, research and analysis with the development of a Prospectus detailing the programme requirements that arise from the work and an Action Plan for their implementation. Era Ltd provides the research and implementation teams and works closely with the client to build up and understand the analysis and the way forward.

Keynote Reports

Era Ltd has developed this high level and strategic consultancy service through the production of a number of key reports that have influenced public policy in a variety of contexts. Era Ltd has demonstrated the capacity to provide rigorous and leading edge thinking and the capability to turn that into clear and innovative policy recommendations.

Flagship Projects

Era Ltd has the expertise, project management skills and creative thinking to bring to bear in transforming an idea into a vision and a vision into a reality on the ground. Such initiatives require a range of knowledge, skills and attitudes from imagination to funding and finance and to land and property development, programme planning and delivery. Our partnerships provide the full range of land and property development skills that are needed and an unparalleled imaginative and inclusive vision for regeneration.

Business Learning

This is an integral part of the Era portfolio and is increasingly seen as the crucial adjunct of regeneration and growth strategies. Era has developed a unique set of facilitated learning events and resources, which enable individuals to address both themselves and their organisations in an experiential and sharing way.

The package consists of:

  • Client diagnostics, needs analysis and customisation
  • Facilitated Gateway Events that engage with the primary issues of the self, creativity, leadership and vision
  • Facilitated operational events that deal with the issues of self employment and business requirements
  • Facilitated e-conferencing to sustain networking and access to practical e-learning materials dealing with issues such as business planning, budgeting, cash flow and marketing.

Networking Development

Era Ltd develops both virtual and actual networks with a common developmental interest at national and international level. We facilitate and maintain these networks through shared research, knowledge management and events. Era Ltd is working closely with specialist broadcast and e-learning companies to construct Web enabled environments that support these networks through learning, training and performance improvement. Both the National Network of Networks for Creative Industries and the Grid for Creative London are examples of this aspect of work.
