Since being established, the LEP has: Unlocked £293m of private sector investment Helped create 921 businesses Created 6,672 jobs Trained or supported 823 learners Delivered 549 new homes The Government awarded the LEP £32.1m from its Getting Building Fund to deliver a range of shovel-ready projects, including vital town centre improvements, faster broadband and regeneration schemes such as the new Marina Centre on Great Yarmouth Seafront and the Burtons Building in Ipswich's Waterfront district. Our Growing Places Fund provides loan-funding to help kick-start and support development projects across Suffolk and Norfolk. From innovation centres that will help launch new start-ups to transforming empty land into new homes and commercial premises, it provides infrastructure loan funding to projects that might otherwise have stalled or not started at all.

Businesses in these zones benefit from business rates discounts, super fast broadband and simplified planning.
