Priorities

Solent means Success, and that means bringing unique resources and talent together.

We surface marine excellence, experience and expertise in the Solent area by having three clear priorities:

Champion, Lead, and Grow.  

CHAMPION

Raising the profile of the Solent – locally, nationally, and internationally – as a globally leading maritime cluster that has world leading maritime excellence, fosters innovation, provides an exceptional location to invest and trade, provides rewarding careers, and has a unique maritime story.

LEAD

Providing leadership for the Solent maritime sector by bringing together the breadth of the sector, coordinating cross-sector activity, projecting a collective voice, and providing a direct link to Maritime UK and Government.

GROW

Developing and maintaining a compelling value proposition for the Solent maritime cluster that attracts new investment, raises productivity and output, creates new jobs, and the skills the sector needs.
