Our role is to develop sustainable economic growth across the region. To achieve this we create infrastructure for future investment, assist large and small businesses with growth aspirations and have a unique role strengthening communities, particularly in fragile areas of the Highlands and Islands.
We support the growth ambition of businesses and social enterprise clients by creating close working relationships in order to accelerate growth in turnover, profitability, wage levels, exports and therefore Gross Value Added (GVA) in the HIE area.
HIE also invests in transformational projects across the region to make the Highlands and Islands a more competitive and attractive place to live, work, study and grow.
