Grow the company you already run
The Zone gives companies more than a tax break and a plot to build on. If you already operate in the region, we will help you go further: roll out technology, fund training, find people, enter foreign markets. Pick what you need.

Need a contractor you can trust?
Sometimes growth means one specific contractor: a lawyer, an HR firm, an adviser or a renewables installer. The Zone knows a network of vetted partner companies serving investors in the region. Meet them instead of searching blind.
Not sure where to start?
The simplest thing is to ask a person. Account managers from the Innovation and Entrepreneurship Development Department will listen to what you want to achieve and point you to the right service. You don’t have to fill in a form.
