Dorset Local Enterprise Partnership is a business led private and public sector partnership, promoting local economic growth and prosperity. Dorset LEP deliver projects that support and develop infrastructure, housing, skills, enterprise, and business growth to achieve long-term economic benefit for all in Dorset.

We have secured £247.7 million for Dorset through competitive bids for central government and European funding.

The scope and impact of our work is broad and ranges from infrastructure improvements (transport and digital) to investment in education, innovation, tourism, research facilities and business/employment space. The projects deliver long term growth and prosperity, jobs and housing to the region. Looking forward we are seeking proposals for commercial innovations to support the ageing population alongside innovations that help to meet the UK’s net zero carbon ambition.
