The InvestFife team presents Fife investment opportunities at the UKREiiF conference
InvestFife, the economic development arm of Fife Council, showcased the region’s top investment opportunities at the UK Property Infrastructure and Investment Forum (UKREiiF).
As part of the Scottish Cities Alliance, a delegation from Fife Council attended last week’s UKREiiF in Leeds. The event brings together more than 12,000 delegates, promoting connections between people, places and companies to accelerate sustainable, inclusive and transformational investments.
The forum provided an excellent platform to highlight the transformative projects driving economic growth and innovation in Fife, particularly in key areas such as the Forth Green Freeport Development and the new Levenmouth rail link, showing the benefits this brings to the rest from Fife.
Located in the heart of Scotland, Fife offers abundant investment opportunities for companies looking to establish or expand their presence. Dunfermline boasts a growing business community and excellent connectivity, making it an ideal location for investment.
The Forth Green Freeport, one of Scotland’s two designated free ports, offers unique incentives and opportunities for companies involved in international trade and investment. Additionally, the Arrol Gibb Innovation Campus (as part of the Forth Green Freeport designation) is transforming large-scale production capabilities through innovation and learning, offering state-of-the-art facilities and access to cutting-edge research and development resources.
Pamela Stevensonmanager of economic development services at Fife Council, said: “Attending the UKREiiF Conference provided us with an invaluable platform to showcase Fife’s investment potential to a diverse audience of investors and sector experts.
“Fife offers an attractive proposition for companies seeking a strategic location, skilled workforce and a supportive business environment. We are committed to providing personalized support and assistance to businesses looking to invest or grow in our region.”
InvestFife offers a wide range of business support services, including assistance with site selection, access to financing and grants, workforce development initiatives and strategic business advice. With a collaborative approach and a commitment to driving economic growth, Fife Council is ready to support businesses at every stage of their journey.
