Offshore Wind will bring significant business opportunities and growth for Scotland. This Cluster will connect businesses with relevant opportunities to help them capitalise on present and future Forth & Tay offshore wind farm developments.

If you are a Scottish company or have a base in Scotland, then you are eligible to become a Forth & Tay Offshore cluster member. Register for free by completing the Supply Chain Survey.

Your listing will enable the Cluster to promote your organisation and to showcase the full supply chain capabilities in this region. The survey takes approximately 15 minutes to complete and asks for the following information:

  • services you currently offer to the sector
  • services in other sectors that you believe could be transferred into offshore wind
  • services which could be adapted for the offshore wind sector with appropriate support
  • services which you aspire to offer the sector in the future

This information will be searchable in the supply chain database and promoted to inward investors such as developers and their contractors.

If you'd like to update your logo or company information within the database, please email mail@forthandtayoffshore.co.uk.
