The Cape Breton Partnership invites proposals from qualified consultants to develop a comprehensive three-year Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) strategy for Cape Breton Island.

This strategy will be developed in close collaboration with the regional and sector-specific Economic Development Officers (EDOs) of the Cape Breton Partnership and other key partners.

The goal is to attract and retain investment in key sectors that align with the region’s economic strengths and opportunities. The selected consultant will be responsible for developing a clear, actionable, and measurable FDI strategy that aligns with Cape Breton’s economic development goals, as outlined in Forward.Together., the Island’s economic development and population growth plan, published in 2024.

The final recommendations should be directed approximately 75% toward actionable steps the Cape Breton Partnership team can lead, and 25% toward recommendations for external partners, including municipalities, industry, and others.
