  • Provide a personal tour of the area to help familiarise your senior team with the opportunities.
  • Advise on any grants or incentives that might be available for your project.
  • Provide introductions and liaison with professional intermediaries, consultants and advisers as appropriate, including access to expert advice on recruitment issues.
