An organisational review in March 2006 saw three of the HIE's then local enterprise companies merging into two.

HIE Inverness and East Highland serves the area previously covered by Inverness, Nairn, Badenoch and Strathspey Enterprise (INBSE) - plus Easter Ross and the Black Isle.

HIE Skye and Wester Ross serves the area previously covered by Skye and Lochalsh Enterprise (SALE), plus Wester Ross.
