Brace yourself, Lincolnshire! The previous week has been charged with thrilling progress in our local industry, anticipating a radiant and thriving future for our cherished county. A revitalising combination of traditional industry combined with invigorating, creative start-ups comprise the ingredients for an economic upswing that’s illuminating Lincolnshire’s prospects. The arena features business acumen from defence to engineering, and steel to tech start-ups, icons of our county’s business capability.
Firstly, acknowledgement must rightfully be directed to our defence sector. Lincolnshire’s notable contributions have been highlighted in a recent issue of Business Weekly, which defined our county’s pivotal role in national security. This is a tribute to the relentless efforts, commitment, and proficiency of our local industry professionals, exemplifying Lincolnshire’s burgeoning influence in this sector.
Applause is due for our native engineering companies Technica and F.E.S. (EX) Ltd, who have synergised with Blackrow Group and On Line Group. This deliberate partnership augurs an escalation in our county’s engineering acumen and fortifies a strong local industry collaboration. We anticipate momentous results from this alliance, further cementing Lincolnshire’s positioning in the field of engineering.
Simultaneously, Immingham and Humber Ports Operator PD Ports have made a remarkable impact by divesting a substantial share to foreign investors. With extensive warehousing at Immingham and other locations on the Humber, such international interest speaks volumes about the potential value of our local resources and the global business allure Lincolnshire possesses.
Lastly, it would be remiss not to mention the electrifying momentum in our steel industry and tech start-ups. British Steel’s novel apprenticeship scheme promises an influx of fresh talent to the county’s industrial core, while the wake of emergent local tech start-ups forecasts a glittering economic future. These are indeed exhilarating times for Lincolnshire, and it’s evident our county is not merely accommodating the evolving times but pioneering a prosperous new era. Here’s to a continuation of thriving business in our splendid county!
