About Us

Invest East Lothian is dedicated to supporting business growth, investment and economic development across East Lothian. We take a collaborative approach to creating a thriving, sustainable and inclusive economy where businesses, entrepreneurs and investors can achieve their ambitions.

As part of East Lothian Council, our Economic Development team works closely with partners across Development, Employability and Business Gateway services. Together, we provide business advice, funding support, investment guidance and access to opportunities that help businesses start, grow and succeed.

We work with businesses at every stage of their journey. Whether you're developing a new idea, launching a start-up, expanding an established company or exploring investment opportunities, we can connect you with the support and resources you need.

Our team also acts as a gateway to a wider network of economic partners, helping businesses access expertise, funding opportunities, skills support and strategic connections across Scotland and beyond.
