We work with local authorities to turn regional priorities into practical delivery — building local capability, attracting public and private investment, and creating routes to market for high-potential businesses to grow.
By connecting government, industry, investors and innovators, we help places unlock their economic potential and deliver growth that lasts.
We help local and strategic authorities build the capability, partnerships and evidence needed to accelerate delivery and support long-term growth.
We help regions attract investment, strengthen innovation ecosystems and develop pipelines of investment-ready businesses and projects.
We help businesses access customers, contracts and new market opportunities through procurement, innovation programmes and strategic partnerships.

Across the UK, we work with local and strategic authorities to address the challenges that shape regional growth. Here are some examples of our work in practice.
Many regions are taking on greater responsibilities through devolution but face capability and capacity gaps in areas such as commercialisation, investment and innovation-led growth.
We work with regional partners to build local capability through embedded expertise, strategic partnerships and hands-on support. This includes initiatives with Cardiff Capital Region, Glasgow City Region, Belfast City Council, East Midlands Combined Authority and South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority.
Outcome: Building capability that remains embedded within the region, helping authorities accelerate delivery and support long-term growth.
Many regions need stronger pipelines of investment-ready businesses, projects and growth opportunities.
In the West Midlands, we have supported regional growth through accelerator programmes, cluster development activity and investment-focused initiatives, helping strengthen the region’s innovation ecosystem
