Investment Territory’s role is to grow a sustainable and diverse economy by attracting and securing private investment to the Territory.
We work in partnership with like-minded investors to realise ambitious and innovative ideas that support the Territory’s growth agenda.
Our focus
- Identifying and promoting investment opportunities across our diverse sectors.
- Supporting proponents to accelerate the development of projects of strategic and economic significance to final investment decision (FID) and through to operations.
- Maximise value for the Territory and proponents.
How can we help?
Investment Territory offer qualifying private sector investors access to dedicated Investment and Major Project Commissioners and a dedicated case manager to provide:
- whole-of-government co-ordination and facilitation services
- information on market potential and competition, research and development capabilities, and workforce development initiatives
- regulatory approval mapping
- support to identify and explore feasibility of site options
- introductions to potential partners, financiers, customers and local suppliers.
Projects that are strategic and economic significant to the Territory can apply for Major Project Status which provides further assistance to support the timely and effectively delivery of private sector investment projects.
Major project status

- providing whole of government support, coordination and facilitation
- assistance in identifying and mapping regulatory approvals
- a dedicated project case manager, and
- facilitation and engagement with the Australian Government through a central and single point of contact.
