GFirst LEP

GFirst LEP is a Local enterprise partnership – one of 38 in England – and is responsible for Gloucestershire's Strategic Economic Plan.

A partnership of business and local government, LEPs were created in 2011. GFirst claims that it was responsible for bringing £77m of inward investment to Gloucestershire in 2015 alone. The LEP chair says in the 2015 annual report that GFirst is "the most successful LEP in the country; the only LEP to receive everything it asked for – and more – from Government."[1] In addition to various local authorities, the 2015 annual report lists the University of Gloucestershire and the "Royal Agricultural College" (correct name Royal Agricultural University[2]) as partners. The chair of the LEP is Diane Savory.
