Phase 2 and the Green Freeport

""

What’s next at Inverness Campus

Phase 2 represents the next stage in the long-term development of Inverness Campus. We’re bringing forward new land and infrastructure to support investment, innovation and growth.

Planning permission in principle has been granted, enabling a significant expansion of the Campus. Some development plots are already available. 

HIE will construct infrastructure, such as roads and utilities, to create serviced plots for sale. Businesses will be able to buy, design and build bespoke facilities.

What phase 2 is delivering

  • up to 117 acres of development land

  • new infrastructure including roads and utilities

  • space for business, academic and supporting uses

  • expanded green space and landscape

This next phase is closely aligned with the Inverness and Cromarty Firth Green Freeport, creating new opportunities for organisations working in renewables, advanced manufacturing and light engineering, while complementing the Campus’s existing focus on life sciences and technology.

The Green Freeport opportunity

27 acres within phase 2 are designated as part of the Inverness and Cromarty Firth Green Freeport tax site, offering potential access to a range of tax incentives and benefits for eligible investors.

This creates opportunities for organisations working in renewables, offshore wind, energy transition and related supply chains, complementing the Campus’s existing focus on life sciences and technology. Phase 2 will bring forward land for development in line with Green Freeport priorities, including net zero, innovation and long‑term economic growth.

Inverness Campus plays a distinct role within the wider Green Freeport, providing a business, research and innovation environment that complements the industrial and port‑focused sites across the region.
