Business Sectors
The Council's Investment and Business Team is leading the drive to support the City's growth plans by encouraging and supporting
business investment.
Our innovative Sector Development Strategy is designed to give Coventry based businesses a competitive
advantage which they can exploit.
The Sectors
Initially we are focusing our efforts on developing the following sectors:
- Automotive (including specialist vehicles and motor-sport)
- Environmental technologies
Sector Strategies
A strategy for each technology based sector is being developed that will describe:
- The reason for choosing to commit to the development of the sector
- What achievements are being sought
- Who are the key partners and how will we work collaboratively with them
- How we will achieve our objectives
- The outcomes we seek
- How we will resource this work
- Monitoring and evaluating our work
Getting Involved
Forward thinking businesses can make a real difference. Please help us and our partners:
- Publicise Coventry's advantages and attract investors
- Lobby and influence decision makers
- Gain funding to help business sectors prosper
- Ensure that we are making the most of our specialist capabilities
- Share information with business about local and regional economic plans
- Ensure business views are captured and relayed
