How Inward Investment Agencies use Growth Flag

Identify investment opportunities and growth clusters

Teams use Growth Flag to understand where high-growth potential is concentrated — both across sectors and geographic clusters. This helps to set the strategy for inward investment targeting, while also ensuring a more evidence-led narrative.

 

Build compelling place narratives and investment propositions

Strengthen your place messaging by underpinning it with credible, up-to-date data on business performance, growth potential and sector strengths. Inward investment teams use Growth Flag data to underpin their Investment Prospectuses and to provide evidence as to why their areas are strong investment location.

 

Effective investor support and retention

Team use Growth Flag's company-level insights to monitor existing investors and key firms, identifying changes in growth trajectory or risk. This monitoring, through the use of portfolios and automated alerts, helps ensure support is continually directed where it is most needed to help existing investors expand and succeed.

 

Account management and connecting of firms

Growth Flag provides data on the global corporate linkages of firms, providing greater insights for teams to understand key players in complex company structures and supply chains. This supports account management, while the data can also support broader ecosystem benefits such as through connecting similar firms that are exporters or preparing to become export ready.
