Economic strategy

In recent years, and in national and regional comparisons, Kent has achieved a good level of performance on job creation and enterprise growth.

Significant amounts of inward investment have also been attracted.

Performance needs to improve on knowledge economy jobs, vocational skills and gross value added per head. KCC and partners' initiatives will contribute to raising Kent's game on these indicators.

The Kent Regeneration Framework "Unlocking Kent's Potential" (2.6mb), identifies the key opportunities, and the challenges that must be addressed, to deliver long lasting regeneration in the county.

Kent Prospects

Kent Prospects, published in June 2007, set out a course of action to secure Kent's future economic success, including growth and regeneration opportunities.
