What we do
Since 2002, the RDAs have created (or safeguarded) over 500,000 jobs, created over 56,000 new businesses and brought over 5,600 hectares of brownfield land to life.
The RDAs implement this goal through focusing on the specific regional priorities that drive economic growth. They support business development and competitiveness by encouraging public and private investment, and by connecting people to economic opportunity. They work to improve levels of education, learning and skills, and do all that they can to enhance their region’s environment and infrastructure.
Their activities and projects have led to successes across the regions.
