Over the past three years VIEA has developed business cases aimed at gaining the attention of those wishing to invest in Island Business. Last year the Summit delivered a broad view of foreign investment opportunities in four sectors. Come and listen to the people that have invested and are taking their ideas to the world. Hear about new and exciting opportunities that have potential to rejuvenate Island communities while generating wealth and attracting foreign investment partners.
‘In 2018, we developed a portfolio of business cases now being marketed globally as we continue developing capacity in our new designation as a Foreign Trade Zone (FTZVI). We’re delighted to see immediate uptake and early traction with the international investment community and happy to be sharing details at the Summit.’ – Mark Smith, Chair, VIEA
