Local Enterprise
Partnership
The 'Worcestershire Works' proposal for the county to become a
Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP) in its own right was
submitted to the Department of Business, Innovation and
Skills after consultation with many local companies, business
representatives and partners, and approved in December 2010.
For full details, please visit the Worcestershire Local Enterprise
Partnership website.
The submission highlighted Worcestershire's unique nature as a
county with both rural and urban characteristics, allowing it to
operate in partnership with neighbouring LEPs while also responding
to its own individual needs and opportunities with appropriate
expertise and understanding.
The initial Worcestershire
Works Local Enterprise Partnership Proposal (September 2010)
document was complemented by an
addendum in December, which clinched the approval.
