The Challenge of Developing Your Growth and Skills Strategy.

The demand to drive growth and address skills issues, especially through the Local Industrial Strategy and Skills Advisory Panels, means that LEPs are under pressure to ensure that their strategy is highly effective and enables limited resources to be deployed for maximum impact. Our aim is to offer your organisation the kind of robust insight that will help you achieve this.

How can we

Help You?

Having a thorough understanding of the economic landscape in your area is a crucial factor in being able to take the right strategic decisions that will ultimately help increase growth and close the skills gaps in your area.


We are currently working with over 1/3 of LEPs in the country, providing them with this understanding through our holistic and highly granular LMI, as well more specific data and analysis answering some of the more niche questions that LEPs have.
