Black Country businesses must stop acting like "issue families stuck in a benefits cycle" and look to self-help rather than state aid, the leader of the region's LEP has told an Insider forum.

And Stewart Towe, chairman of the Black Country Local Enterprise Partnership, said that larger companies must start tutoring smaller businesses through the downturn.

"The days of grants are gone forever. We have to look at self-help," Towe told an audience of more than 100 business leaders at Insider's Black Country Economic Forum, held at Walsall FC's Banks's Stadium.
