Inverness Campus is one of the most exciting and important projects being developed by Highlands and Islands Enterprise over the next 20 years.
Internationally connected, the Campus will enable thriving businesses to work hand in hand in sharing knowledge and resources with those in research and education. The wide range of facilities on offer will provide amenity to the local community and give a greater choice to students of all ages considering higher and further education. The Campus will play a pivotal role in the region's future.
The Campus Golden Bridge was lifted into place across the A9 trunk link road in April click to see >>. The Golden Bridge has a single span of 84 metres across 8 lanes of highway and is 9 metres wide. It weighs 290 tons with a minimum height over the A9 of 6.5 metres.
A snapshot of what the future may hold has been developed to give a bird's eye view of how the Campus may look in ten to fifteen years time. To watch the development as it happens there is an on-site webcam, pointing from the south to the backdrop of the globally recognised Moray Firth and Ben Wyvis in the north, it refreshes every minute. A video diary can be viewed via the same link.
The Scottish Government has designated the Campus with Enterprise Area status for Life Sciences. This will be key to the next five years of development. Listen to the key points of this exciting announcement by Scottish Government ministers.
Life Science Enterprise Area status for Inverness Campus will add to the attraction of this world-class site, with its proximity to Inverness' growing health cluster, offering investors from the broad life science sector rates relief for up to five years.
