Cornwall Trade and Investment

Dydh da! (‘Hello’ in Cornish) Cornwall Trade and Investment promotes Cornwall nationally and internationally, raising the region’s profile as a dynamic business destination that’s bursting with opportunity. We help drive Cornwall’s economy by securing investment and attracting businesses to locate in the region. To those already here, we offer support and guidance to help them internationalise and access new markets. The power of Cornwall is great; the region is capable of driving the UK’s energy transition through its abundance of critical minerals like lithium and tin and pioneering research and development in geothermal energy, offshore wind resources and biofuels. Increased demand for satellite intelligence and drone testing in the region has enabled Cornwall to grow its space assets and infrastructure offerings, providing a new dimension to green solutions. Cornwall’s unique concentration of natural assets, combined with a fierce commitment to Net Zero and a strong sense of community, is attracting purpose-led businesses and organisations with the means to unlock opportunity in the region and drive Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) investment. The region’s rich culture and heritage strengthen the ecosystem of innovation: a vibrant creative industry is forging sector links, and a globally recognised food and drink sector offers the perfect testbed for developing agri-food solutions. Cornwall offers a coherence and circular economy that does not exist elsewhere. Cornwall Trade & Investment ensures this is communicated to a global audience and attracts businesses who can help strengthen our burgeoning green economy.
