With an outstanding international reputation in many sectors including, life sciences, energy and digital industries, Scotland is known as a highly attractive location for business and infrastructure investment.

Infrastructure

We work with private and public sector partners on a co-investment basis, jointly investing in projects that put our partners at the forefront of developments in the Scottish economy.

We invest in infrastructure projects to help our key sectors grow faster and provide accommodation for companies and new inward investors. We focus on delivering projects of national or regional importance with the greatest chances of success to offer long-term returns for our economy. We offer opportunities to co-invest on projects that have industry and stakeholder backing, offering a more secure route to return on investment.
