Advantage West Midlands
 
Advantage West Midlands is one of nine Regional Development Agencies (RDAs) established by the Government in 1999 to transform England's regions through sustainable economic development.
 
Within this remit, our role in the West Midlands is to help transform the regional economy by connecting need and opportunity to create a better place in which to invest, work, learn, visit and live.
 
We do this primarily by leading the development and delivery of the West Midlands Economic Strategy (WMES), which is the framework for all our, and our partners’, activity up to 2010.
 
Following extensive consultation, Delivering Advantage – the West Midlands Economic Strategy, was recently updated and launched in January 2004. At the Strategy’s heart is a Vision that all regional partners have committed to achieving:
 
By 2010 “the West Midlands is recognised as a world-class region in which to invest, work, learn, visit and live and the most successful in creating wealth to benefit all of its people”.
