• Business & Development

Invest Northern Ireland was formed in April 2002 by the Northern Ireland Government as the main economic development organisation. Our strategy is to add value to the economy and create wealth.

Our key objectives are:

To promote Innovation in all its aspects, stimulate higher levels of R&D, design and improve knowledge transfer.

To achieve higher levels of growth by indigenous and externally-owned businesses.

To promote a more enterprising culture in Northern Ireland so as to raise overall level and quality of business starts.

To attract high quality, knowledge-based investment from outside of Northern Ireland as well as companies and individuals, we work with universities, FE colleges, local councils and other public sector organisations to achieve these objectives.
