Sector Based Support

Certain sectors of industry need more specialist interventions. To boost the productivity and profitability of these firms we will continue to work with regional sector bodies and groups of companies in key sectors, supporting them with skills and product development, enhancing the supply chain and market penetration.

In the North East several areas have currently been identified as growth, or potential growth, areas. This status is being reviewed constantly for emerging sectors. The Agency will focus on a few key regional sectors to be more focused and aiming to provide a better return on investment.

The current sector areas include:

Chemical

Food and Drink

Healthcare

Energy and Low Carbon Technology

Automotive

Defence & Marine

Knowledge Intensive Business Services

Commercial Creative Industries
