Already recognised as a nationally significant area for development, helping local businesses thrive is key to the development of our district - bringing new jobs and opportunities into people’s communities.

Our ambition 

We will support local businesses as they start up and grow and as we transition towards a sustainable economy. Working with partners we are helping our residents develop the skills they need to take full advantage of local opportunities. Our area is already truly world leading and we will work to strengthen this position, whilst being mindful of the inequalities that exist and which access to work will go some way to address.

Our key objectives - What we will do

• We will provide support to help businesses to start up and grow within South Cambridgeshire.
• We will work with partners to promote apprenticeships and support the economically inactive back into work.
• We will work with partners to promote the vibrancy and health of South Cambridgeshire high streets, markets and commercial areas.
• We will work with partner organisations and through the planning service to make South Cambridgeshire an even more attractive place to do business.
