About us
SEEDA has one aim - to support the economic development of this world-class region. We work at a local, regional, national and international level to attract inward investment, to help businesses reach their full potential and to win practical support from a range of partners. We bring funding into the region to help the economic growth of the South East.
SEEDA's vision is to be the best economic development agency a top global region could have:
• With expert interventions;
• Expert deal making; and
• Expert strategic advice.
We provide businesses with the support they need to grow, through our in-depth knowledge of their needs and the economic conditions, in which they operate.
With the formation of the South East England Partnership Board in 2009, SEEDA shares responsibility for regional planning, along with councillors from the South East England Leaders' Board. Together we will prepare a 20 year regional strategy covering homes, jobs, transport and a sustainable environment. The new strategy will bring together current work included in the Regional Economic Strategy 2006-2016 and the South East Plan.
